"I just want to see it": Tennis fans ask Federer to coach Alcaraz, Raducanu and also some other interesting players in a hypothetical scenario

Tennis fans expressed their desire to see the former world
number one Switzerland’s Roger Federer coach several young and experienced
players in the circuit.
The 41-year-old is currently spending his free time after
announcing retirement last year in an emotional message.
A page on the social media platform Twitter with the name Relevant Tennis posted a hypothetical question that who would fans want to see
Federer coach if there is an opportunity to come.
In response to that, there were a lot of mixed answers as
fans suggested that they would love to see the former legendary tennis player
coach the likes of current world number one Carlos Alcaraz, a three-time
runner-up in a Grand Slam Tunisia’s Ons Jabeur and young Britain’s tennis star Emma
Raducanu.
Federer remains one of the most successful players in the
history of men’s singles tennis in the Open era, having won as many as 20 Grand
Slam titles.
He was the first player even in the men’s singles category
to win more than 15 Grand Slam titles and was also the first to reach the 20
titles mark.
During his last years at the highest level, the Basel-born
struggled with a number of injuries and it made it hard to continue competing
with the best and upcoming players.

- This person has arguably always been a 'problem personality'. Rarely, if ever, has he been The Solution to any matter in sports. More often combative and accusatory via media blurbs and texts. As for his "great success" as a coach -- the planets were aligned in his favor the day The Williams Family signed on to him. The William sisters were going to succeed regardless of his, or anyone else's, input. If you want to know how other players' have been affected by his "coaching" simply study the graphics on a chart. Average results, with a degree of combativeness and animosity in every camp. His "success" is entirely attributed to the natural Williams talent(s). Not unlike Raducanu's claim to fame of winning one title.
- Quinwen learned it's better to have friends in tennis. Happy to see she has changed her attitude on the circuit.
- Remind her the racquet is in HER hand, not any coach.
- My advice to Coco is take a few months off from the tour and focus on the serve. If MacMillan is not producing the expected results, relieve him of his duties and hire someone else. To hell with the rankings and what people will say. Just take a break. Mental health is far more important than money.
- Eventually (as other sports have done) WTA will be forced to make DNA / Gender Testing mandatory in order to protect and promote fairness in competitions. End of so-called 'controversy'.
- It's sad... but Rybakina is not going to be able to endure her groomer's interference in Life and still excel to her best level. BTW: No media has reported her last sentence to the physio. They kept asking questions and she abruptly told them: "I know what it is; I'm ready to go now".
- You seem to have 'lost the plot' ??
- This needs to be done, and I think Jessica Pegula is an excellent choice for chair to look into the situation. However, a very brief look at the other members of the panel would suggest a very USA heavy contingent. The group needs to represent all interests, not just turn it into a way the US can screw more money out of an already biased calendar.
- The tennis world should be kissing her feet for taking-on this long needed position in a much needed council. The WTA and ATP need a good shaking-up. Pegula's business heritage is a proven one. Let's hope she and her colleagues can stop WTA & ATP from shutting their work down and out. GO GET 'EM !!
- So the Sportswasher's largest market is... the Filipino community? That's all well and good but the hundreds and hundreds of empty seats throughout is embarrassing. Talk about bad optics!
