Emma Raducanu is looking for a new trainer

It's over after just five months: Emma Raducanu and Torben Beltz are going their separate ways, and the young Briton is once again looking for a new coach. And for the third time in the last ten months, as The Times reported on Tuesday. Raducanu has only won five of their last twelve matches.

"I would like to thank Torben for his commitment. He has a big heart and I have enjoyed our good chemistry during our time together," Raducanu said in a statement. Now the US Open winner from 2021 wants to change her training program - she will be supported by the LTA (British Tennis Association) in the coming weeks.

Will Raducanu Piatti join the team?

Just a few days ago, Raducanu was honored with the Lauerus Award for Breakthrough of the Year for her sensational triumph at the US Open. Since her first major title, however, the teenager has been looking for her form, the Brit only wanted to make two quarter-finals in the months after the US Open title.

According to rumors, Emma Raducanu could work with Ricardo Piatti, who had accompanied Jannik Sinner in his breakthrough in recent years. The South Tyrolean Sinner announced his separation from Piatti just a few weeks ago. Piatti has also worked with Maria Sharapova in his coaching career.
