RADUCANU Fires Her Coach After One Match

What began at the Indian Wells Open last week where RADUCANU lost in the first round was supposed to be part of a  proposed three-month trial run with Vladimir ‘Vlado’ Platenik but the Slovakian is already out of a job  this week's event in Miami.

He wasn't in Raducanu's corner as she galloped into the second round in Florida with a dominant 6-2 6-1 victory over Japan’s Sayaka Ishi, hitting six aces to win her first match since dealing with a stalker in Dubai Tennis Championships last month.

For The British No.1, it was her first victory at the tournament after three attempts.

At 22, EMMA RADUCANU will be looking for the EIGHTH coach of her young career after Platenik's exit because the former US Open champion has been without one since childhood friend Nick Cavaday stepped away for health reasons earlier this year.

Who knows? what did not help Vlado was the interview he gave in his homeland where he revealed how he had turned down two approaches in the past three-and-a-half years from Raducanu’s father, as he considered the job to be a COACHING SUICIDE.

According to Emma Raducanu's team; Emma still has utmost respect for Vlado and the work they started, even though Emma and Vlado have parted ways.
