Polina Kudermetova has hired Safina as coach...Safina couldn't do much with Shnaider but maybe this can work out..

Raducanu has dumped her coach for the 8th time...she wants to go back to playing the way she was earlier...taking the ball early, redirecting..that does make sense..that is how she won the USO..

She won the USO by catching lightning in a bottle.
The weirdest final of all times (at the USO). Two extremely undersized players reached it.

It's a disappointing, but not surprising development - Raducanu wants to play a specific style, but that style is probably not going to lead to the best results based on her physical size, and abilities.

Pleased to hear Boulter is working with Michael Joyce..read about him in 'String Theory' and was impressed. He was briefly Sharapova's coach too.

He needs only one thing. Somebody to teach him to return serve. Just one more returned serve per game, and he is a top 20 player.
