Recently, on her official Instagram story, Emma Raducanu shared a picture, where fans spotted a signboard that read- “Less social media.” Now, Raducanu’s Instagram story has hinted to fans about her new resolution to deal with trollers. After exiting from the 2022 Wimbledon, Raducanu fell under the radar of severe trolling. While she responded to that nicely by mentioning herself as a Slam Champion, it somehow impacted Raducanu’s mental health.

This British tennis star didn’t win any major after her 2021 US Open victory. Thereupon, trollers targeted her by saying that she didn’t have enough talent to win any major in the future. Raducanu lashed out at the comments and that moment.

For Raducanu, her mental health has always been a priority. After winning her career’s first Slam, this British Prodigy wished that she never had the spotlight as it insanely challenged her well-being. Raducanu said-“I am resilient, my tolerance is high, but it’s not easy. And sometimes I think to myself I wish I’d never won the US Open, I wish that didn’t happen.”

Trollers also dug out about Emma Raducanu’s short-lived moments with some of her coaches. They called out Raducanu’s arrogance as the reason for it. However, the British tennis star dismissed the fact by revealing an interesting story to that.

In this context, Raducanu has been quite frank about the situation. However, this British tennis star isn’t ready to accept it as her fault, rather she dropped an interesting fact about it.

Raducanu said- “I ask my coaches a lot of questions. On certain occasions, they haven’t been able to keep up with the questions I’ve asked & maybe that’s why it ended. It’s something I’ve always done. I keep provoking & asking questions to coaches & challenging their thinking as well. I’m not someone that you can just tell me what do & I’ll do it, I need to understand why & then I’ll do it.”
