Raonic on favourite academic subject: "It was a big part of our lives growing up"

Former World No.3 Milos Raonic spoke in a recent interview about which subject helped him the most when it came to growing up and helping his career.

Raonic revealed it as being maths due to it being a subject that has helped him think of things more rationally and logically and that this massively helped him as a result.

“Math was a big part of our lives growing up and that’s a process as well," said Raonic to the ATP website.

"You try to look at things as rationally and as logically as possible. I think that kind of association, that perspective on things, made a big difference for me because there were moments where I would get very emotional and frustrated or positive or negative about things."

"But those moments were hard to always justify, It could just be a feeling and sometimes, if you can’t explain those feelings to yourself, it can get out of hand. It could get out of control. So for me, the rationalisation of a process has been a very grounding thing."

"It’s not just in my tennis. It’s in every aspect of my life that I perceive things that way. What motivates me is the pursuit to improve and get better each and every day,” Raonic said. “I know if I could achieve those things on a day-to-day basis, I will achieve my goals."
