After 5 years and 11 titles together!! Andy and I both agreed it was the right time to move our separate ways. I am very thankful for all his hard work and endless support. I wish him only the best in his future career!
Elina Svitolina has worked with Andrew Bettles for the past 5 years but that now is over as the Ukrainian announced the split on social media.
Elina Svitolina has worked with Andrew Bettles for the past 5 years with him becoming her official coach in 2018. Svitolin added Marcos Baghdatis to her coaching team in 2020 and now it's only Baghdatis remaining. Svitolina announced the news of the split with her coach of 5 years on social media. She wrote:
"After 5 years and 11 titles together!! Andy and I both agreed it was the right time to move our separate ways. I am very thankful for all his hard work and endless support. I wish him only the best in his future career!"
The split is an unexpected one as the duo seemed to work really well. Svitolina did not have the best seasons of her career but she did achieve a few notable results including a bronze medal at the 2020 Tokyo Olympics. Bettles also guided Svitolina to 11 titles which is the majority of her titles as she won 16 overall. It remains to be seen whether Svitolina will add someone to her team or if it will be only Baghdatis moving forward.

- Players need to STOP TRYING TO JUSTIFY THEIR INCLUSION! They are not ambassadors for women in Saudi Arabia, they are not politicians, and they will never make a difference for females in that 'culture'. This little tennis "tournament" changes nothing. Players were lured by the money, opted to participate, and should just keep their predictable excuses and Women's Freedom Fairy Tales to themselves. Period. Like most things in Life -- one cannot make an argument relating to the Saudi Regime and, at the same time, triple your bank account with their "gifts".
