Simona Halep announced on her Facebook profile that her first coach Nicusor Ene died due to heart attack at the age of 61.
It was really sad news for Halep when she found out that the person that taught her how to play tennis died. She shared the message with her fans when she wrote:
”I just landed from Dubai, the place where I spent the off-season to train for the new year. Each time when I arrive I call my mom… Today the call ended with the sad news that professor Ene left us, a kind person who never scolded me not even once in all those 4 years during which he has taught me absolutely everything about what tennis really means.
"It was one of the most important bricks that he put on this wonderful career of mine. I cherish enormously the fact that he was next to me on the stage from Constanța when I celebrated the Wimbledon trophy. Always in my soul! God bless him!”
