"I think my parents still see me as a kid so that's never going to change": Raducanu believes life hasn't changed for parents despite turning 20

Emma Raducanu burst onto the scene as an 18-year old and in the meantime, she turned 20 but things are still the same in her life as nothing changed.
Raducanu is not technically a teenager anymore but she was one when she won the US Open. A lot has changed for Raducanu since then in her career but in her life things are pretty much the same. She hasn't changed and her parents still see her as a kid but that isn't really going to change in the future either:
“There's not much difference, really. I think my parents still see me as a kid so that's never going to change."
On turning 20 Raducanu further added:
"But yeah, it's like you kind of think in your head that 20 is old, but then you actually realise 'I've got like 15 years of this, if I want it', so I've still got a long time. It's just important to put that in perspective and not think you're running out of time at age 20."
She will play at the Australian Open after declaring herself fit to play.

- All this points to entitlement and elitisms. If you're no longer ranked high enough, you work for it like most everyone else (the Williams' seem to be able to demand their freebies). And for Wozniacki to even broach the "... it's all about who you know" subject is absurd since that afforded her an easy-in upon (at least) the first tourney upon her return. Self-absorbed personalities might best stick to TikTok and stop invoking privilege when it comes to qualifying for tourneys.
