Raducanu splits with coach Roig after six months

British No 1 Emma Raducanu has called time on working with coach Francisco Roig after six months, the 2021 US Open champion said on Thursday.

The split comes on the heels of Raducanu's second-round exit at the Australian Open, where the 23-year-old fell 7-6(3) 6-2 to unseeded Anastasia Potapova.

Raducanu had appointed the Spaniard on a fulltime basis in August, bringing in a coach with a strong Grand Slam pedigree. Roig served as a long-time member of Rafael Nadal's coaching team during much of the 22-times major winner's career.

"While we have come to the conclusion together that we ought not to move forward, please know that I am very grateful for all you have taught me ...," Raducanu posted on Instagram.

Roig was the eighth coach of Raducanu's career, as the carousel continues to spin for the Briton.

She has struggled to find stability in her team since her stunning breakthrough at Flushing Meadows.
