Rest in peace my friend and my coach. I was blessed to have you in my life ❤️
The tennis world is mourning the loss of Kristijan Schneider, former coach of Croatian Borna Coric, who has passed away aged 41.
The Croatian player confirmed the news on social media writing:
"Rest in peace my friend and my coach. I was blessed to have you in my life."
Schneider, also known as “Kiki”, had been battling abdominal cancer.
Those involved in a fundraising effort to support his treatment included
Italian World No. 197 Thomas Fabbiano and Gilles Cervara, coach of World No. 2 Daniil Medvedev.
Another Croatian, WTA star Ana Konjuh, paid tribute to Schneider on Instagram.
“I’m lost for words. Until we meet again, save me a hug up there. Rest in peace Kiki."

- On the subject of potential Losers in Tennis... Why is the tennis media avoiding the news that Giorgi and Family robbed their landlord in Florence? Apparently they did some Midnight Marketing and stole antique and collectible items belonging to the landlord's family (including large furniture and miscellaneous Family History items). The old guy and his mother just want their 'history' back, even though they are losing thousands of Euro's in 6 months of unpaid rent. This man makes it clear the father is the main player behind this sudden disappearance (and the tax dodging in Italy).
mandoist20-05-2024 - Seems like Emma is taking the Giorgi and Bouchard route -- using occasional Tennis as a media hit for their alternate ambitions (zooming sponsors, photo shoots, magazine covers, TV commercials, anti-Social Media postings, hiring photog's to make "informal" shots of her on vacation, etc., etc.) Hey, WTA! Hey, Sponsors! You're being played to the tune of millions of misspent Euros and Pounds!!mandoist20-05-2024
