EMMA: NO NEED TO PANICWITHCOACH

EMMA RADUCANU’S ready to play the French Open and Wimbledon without a “conventional” coach.

The US Open champion thanked her latest former coach Torben Beltz after their split and insisted she is not “panicking” to appoint his successor.

Speaking ahead of the Madrid Masters, the 19year-old said she learned growing up to be “my own coach” and now wants to concentrate on hitting with different “sparring” partners. Asked if she’d be concerned going into this summer’s Grand Slams without a fulltime coach, Raducanu said: “To be honest, no.

“I am very comfortable with how I am training right now and I feel like the work I have been doing has been extremely specific in the last weeks. I feel like I don’t really need a conventional just this title, ‘Emma Raducanu’s coach’.”
