Emma talked about a balanced life along with playing tennis. When further asked to elaborate about her interests apart from tennis, she said, “Right now my interests, I really like motor sport, so Formula One, Moto GP. They kind of give me the thrills and adrenaline rush I always kind of seek”. The young 11th ranked player gave the reason ‌she cannot pursue her interests. She mentioned, “Because it’s a bit dangerous for tennis, unfortunately”. She, however, has kept a track of the races and always is updated about it. Though time stays restricted for the British tennis player, she doesn’t miss out on a good quality time with her loved ones. Apart from the buzz and thrill of motor sport, she mentioned, “I just try and spend time with my family and friends, yeah, catch up, always following the races”.
