Teenage US Open champion Emma Raducanu has been voted BBC Sports Personality of the Year 2021.
Raducanu, then 18, ended Britain's 44-year wait for a women's Grand Slam singles champion with her remarkable victory at Flushing Meadows.


Her fairytale win followed a run to the Wimbledon fourth round in July on her Grand Slam main draw debut.
In a public vote, diver Tom Daley placed second and swimmer Adam Peaty was third.

Irish jockey Rachael Blackmore has been voted BBC Sports Personality's World Sport Star of the Year for 2021.
The 32-year-old became the first female rider to win the Grand National at Aintree with victory on 11-1 chance Minella Times in April.


No other woman had ever finished in the first two of the famous steeplechase.

Blackmore also became the first woman to be leading jockey at the Cheltenham Festival in March, where she racked up six victories.
