← Emma Raducanu

Do you think Emma Raducanu has made a good decision with this hire?

Could you see her winning another Grand Slam title alongside Andrew Richardson?

stusmithratho3mo ago

It doesn't matter who coaches her, until she gets her head sorted she will win nothing. Too much concentration on off court matters rather than what's happening on court.

Boulter pulled out of Nottingham and nobody says anything.Leave Emma alone.She will never change and is a GS winner but do not expect any other titles from her unless its a 250 perhaps.Just not good enough against the top players and gets down on herself to quickly.

During the Queen Cup final, in the 2nd set, she was shooting corners aggressively, a style describes her character, which earned her 2 service breaks and led 5-2. Serving for the set, that coach asked her to send to the middle, momentum then flowed back to Donna. Coaches must be able to recognise strength of his player in a match n sHout GO FOR IT

Yes, but it's a little bit too late.

Whoever she hires cannot see winning any tournament ever again.The GS win was because half of the players did not compete due to covid so she had a lucky draw.Just not strong enough or fit enough physically or mentally to compete at the highest level.If she was not British nobody would take any notice of her.

It's not so much the coach more a specialist doctor to stop all last minute so called injuries she comes up wirh some 24 hrs before the compotion starts

I think her body is shot from over playing ...they've played her TOO MUCH

peter.lynch4mo ago

Welcome decision, but a Grand Slam... I definitely can't see it!

quanp034mo ago

Win a 250 or 500 if she gets lucky.

jzent7604mo ago

She is impossible to coach as she does not accept criticism or listen to how her game can be improved and only plays when she feels like it so will drop down the rankings and have early round defeats to seeded players.

matthew.johns4mo ago

It's definitely worth a shot given their previous success, but time will tell if he was the key to that...

callumdaviestennis4mo ago

Yeah, good decision I think. Lots of chopping and changing ever since hasn't worked. Best to go back to the only guaranteed success she has ever had

george.patten4mo ago

I think it’s a good call. But if it does work out you have to wonder if she’s just wasted the last five years…
