Emma Raducanu has already won her first slam, but curiously, she still has limited experience playing on the main tour. Cori Gauff is one year younger than Emma Raducanu, but she has been dealing with being popular for a couple of years.
During an interview in Indian Wells, Coco Gauff was asked to elaborate on which advice she would give to Emma Raducanu after reaching notoriety following her US Open title.
Careful to Social Media
The American sensation reveals that she used to struggle when dealing with social media. Therefore, Emma needs to be careful about her online activity. The young American commented:
“It is exciting when you get all the retweets, all the follows and all of that, but it can be a bit overwhelming. At least in my experience. That’s probably what I wish I would’ve known, not to focus on social media.
I put a time limit on my phone because I thought I was spending too much time on it. From 8:30 am to 9:30 pm I have limited access to apps.”
During a recent interview, tennis legend Roger Federer revealed that he was lucky that there were no social media when he was younger. The Swiss sensation admitted that he doesn’t know how he would have called with all the online activities.
