The 31-year-old German expert, who two years ago brought the Swiss Belinda Bencicová to the Olympic gold, and in the past also successfully collaborated with the Belarusian Viktoria Azarenkova and compatriot Julia Görgesová, took over the sensational winner of the US Open from 2021 only at the end of last year. As the fifth coach in the last 18 months!
However, his charge did not return to the elite. The 20-year-old Raducanu has struggled with her form and health since her fabulous triumph at the US Open, which she won as an 18-year-old after qualifying. This year, among other things, she finished in the 1st round in Miami and Stuttgart and in the 2nd round of the Australian Open and is currently not even in the top 100 of the WTA rankings.
Emma Raducanu now searching for a sixth coach in two years after ending a six-month partnership with Sebastian Sachs. Regardless of the reasons for each split, undeniable now that this reputation impacts on her ability to recruit. https://t.co/dlyAjFQ8ls

In addition, she underwent wrist and ankle surgeries a few weeks ago and will be out for several months. He has to miss not only the ongoing Grand Slam French Open, but he will also miss the home tournament in Wimbledon. And during the forced break, he looks for another coach. For the sixth time in the last two years…
After her triumph in New York, Raducanu did not live up to expectations and often changed coaches. Before Sachs, she last broke up with Dmitri Tursunov last October. Before him, the tennis player was led by Nigel Sears, Andrew Richardson and Torben Beltz.
