“You see and learn that it’s a privilege to be a professional athlete at the highest level, when you don’t have it,” said Edmund, who is excited about his next season, now looking at his progress over time. “Looking back, I’ve always said that in a humble way, maybe you don’t see it, but at the professional level when you’re on the court and you’re not on your team.
“You make your own decisions all the time, what qualities help you in life, take you to the next thing. I have to finish that that will get me in all kinds of events, but when you’re on tour playing these kinds of events, but when you’re on tour you’re playing.”
