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.”
