"Emma Raducanu has secured the services of Rafael Nadal's former coach, Francisco Roig, on a full-time basis as she prepares for the US Open. Raducanu worked informally with Mark Petchey since March but needed a full-time coach. Roig's contract extends until the end of 2025, marking a commitment to enhance Raducanu's performance as she aims for a strong tournament showing."
"Despite early struggles to settle with coaches, Raducanu enjoyed a productive season with Petchey's guidance, culminating in reaching the quarter-finals at the Miami Open and a semi-final at the Citi Open. With Roig now in her corner, she aims to strengthen her ranking and secure a good seeding at the upcoming US Open."
Emma Raducanu has appointed Francisco Roig, Rafael Nadal's former coach, as her full-time coach before the US Open. She has worked informally with Mark Petchey since March, achieving positive results. Petchey's commitments prevented him from a full-time role. Raducanu reached quarter-finals at the Miami Open and a semi-final at the Citi Open this season. Roig has a contract through 2025, and Raducanu aims to improve her WTA ranking and tournament performance, focusing on the upcoming Cincinnati Open.
