Former US Open champion Emma Raducanu separates from her fifth coach in less than two years
Posted : 01 June 2023
Emma Raducanu, a former US Open winner, has parted ways with coach Sebastian Sachs, making him her seventh coach in under two years.
Following a "red flag" warning from the former coach Dmitry Tursunov, Sachs joined the British player's squad in December.
As she heals from minor surgery on her ankle and wrists, Raducanu was compelled to skip the French Open and won't be available for Wimbledon this year.
The 20-year-old is no longer ranked among the top 100 women in the world.
"I have really enjoyed Seb's coaching and working with him, it's unfortunate that circumstances made it unfeasible for both of us to continue right now and we have decided to part ways," Raducanu posted on her Twitter account.
"I wish Seb all the best moving forwards."
The sole singles championship Raducanu has won is the 2021 US Open, despite her struggles with injury and a changing coaching staff.
She has only participated in 10 WTA Tour matches in 2023, winning just five of them. Three of her wins came in Indian Wells, where she also lost to Polish world No. 1 Iga Swiatek.
