Emma Raducanu will make her return to tennis at the Indian Wells Masters later this week but she will do so without the coach who guided her to the US Open triumph.
Emma Raducanu announced that she parted ways with her coach not long ago with the British player arriving in the US alone. Her decision to split with her coach caught many people by surprise but the British player explained that she needed someone with more WTA tour-level experience. Former British number one Tim Henman doesn't think it will be a huge issue:
“Her coaching situation I’m sure will get addressed at the end of the
year. She’s got a nice schedule now with three
or four tournaments before the end of the year. November and December will be time for her to reflect and plan for
the future. In terms of who that coach might be, I’ve got no idea. She
needs to sit down and see who is available.”
Raducanu will have a busy schedule for the rest of the year as the Brit committed to play the Kremlin Cup after Indian Wells. Next up will be the Transylvania Open with Linz not far behind. She has a chance to qualify for the WTA Finals if she does well and the expectations will be high after the US Open. That is why Henman believes that a lot of available coaches will be eager to work with Raducanu:
“I’m sure there will be lots of interest in the job. Hopefully, then she can put someone in place to build on the enormous success of the latter part of this year.”

- Either Lena has a chronic internal ailment (i.e., colitis, enteritis, Crohn's, or some type of lower abdomen issue) -- or she is once again dealing with 'Vukovitis'. Mental stress can indeed cause lower body pains. No matter... whatever is truly going on sucks. "Virus" excuse is getting a bit old -- and often -- at this point.

- Vukov is doing this to Lena... AGAIN!!!!! WTA's autonomous collective should be dismantled for allowing Vukov to re-emerge from his hand-slapping suspension. Just ask WTA employees how that's been going lately as they witness his continued verbal abuses. Women's Pro Tennis should start over.mandoist08-11-2026

- One step by another step -- WTA continues to 'lose the plot'. Too many hi-tech microphones being installed at most venues!!! Remove them (especially those along the hallways, sidewalks, and pathways throughout the venues. Not to mention (most of all) remove the mic's from the Players/Coaches Box.mandoist06-11-2026

- Don't you just love this young lady!? We fans often expect athletes to be supermen and superwomen, often forgetting that they WILL GET TIRED! I love Alex's perspective. Tiredness for an athlete should never be viewed as a negative, especially if you are healthy, taking care of your body and mental health and putting in the work. What a mature perspective. Good for you, Alex!Rapunzel05-11-2026
- Jess is absolutely correct! But the disrespect is a trait I have noticed in most of the Russian players. Mirra is good but very immature and lacks humility. Conceivable needs to get a handle on that!Rapunzel05-11-2026
