Emma first started playing tennis at the age of five at her local park courts in Bromley. Her Dad was a huge inspiration for her growing up and the pair used to play regularly at Bromley Tennis Centre. This was where Emma won her first tournament aged six in the 8&U competition.

Emma won her first senior title at the ITF $15K event in Tiberias, Israel at the age of 15 in May 2018. She battled through 45 degree heat without dropping a set to become the youngest player that year to reach an ITF final.

Later that year she doubled her tally, winning her second ITF $15K title in October at the GD Tennis Cup in Antalya, Turkey.

In 2018, Emma reached the quarter-finals of the girl’s singles event at Junior Wimbledon – losing to eventual winner and future French Open champion, Iga Swiatek. Along the way, Emma defeated Leylah Fernandez in the second round, who she would next face in the US Open final.

She also reached the quarter-finals stages of the Junior US Open that same year.

Emma’s historic run to become the first qualifier to ever win a Grand Slam in September 2021, saw her jump 127 places in the WTA rankings to No.23 and to become the 22^nd British No.1 of the Open Era.

Emma got her first call up to the British team in 2019 at the age of 17 for an away tie against Slovakia.

After selecting the teenager as part of the squad, team captain Anne Keothavong said: "I still remember the first time I clapped eyes on her she was only about 11 years of age and I was doing my LTA coaching course. I remember saying to another one of the coaches I’m going to have to go full out here against her she’s that good. Emma always had something special.”

Competing for the British Bulldogs in the Battle of the Brits Team Tennis event, Emma was one of the stars of the event, with fans watching the coverage declaring her as a star of the future.

One standout moment saw her play alongside fellow US Open champion, Joe Salisbury, in a mixed doubles match to defeat Andy Murray and Jodie Burrage 4-6 6-4 10-8 to help the Bulldogs claim the title.
