British tennis star Emma Raducanu has become one of the most developed players in recent times. In her second appearance at a Grand Slam event, she ended up winning the title. At the age of 18 years, she is a proud Grand Slam champion. 

Recently, former WTA star Chanda Rubin spoke on Raducanu and her recent development. However, the former American player raised concerns with regard to the Briton being able to handle fame. She feels the fact that Emma has got it all so soon, might have happened too quickly for her.

The former doubles champion stated, “It’s a shift of your mindset and for Raducanu it has happened just all at once. It’s a huge difference and for most players, they’ve had to break into the top 100, and then you sort of hit those milestones, you know, into maybe the top 30, top 20, and at each stage, you sort of deal with a different kind of pressure.”

Emma Raducanu has grown into the game differently

Rubin spoke about the fact that players usually first break into the top 100 rankings. After that, players then break into the top 30 followed by the top 20, and so on. However, in Raducanu’s case, the situation is different.

The 45-year-old further added, “For Raducanu, it has just happened all at one time, literally within a couple of months, she has kind of leaped past these normal milestones.

“We’ve been seeing her social media, all of the different events she’s doing, the people that she’s rubbing shoulders with. How will she handle all that? We’ve seen how she handles it on the court, how well she’s going to handle it off the court, it’s going to be interesting to see.”
