Parting ways: Emma Raducanu and Dmitry Tursunov
(Picture: Getty Images)Emma Raducanu has begun her search for a fifth coach in 15 months after a parting of ways with Dmitry Tursunov.
Raducanu has earned a reputation for chopping and changing coaches with regularity but it was the Russian who decided to part company and pursue a different coaching partnership.
The pairing had already shown positive signs after she reached the Korea Open semi-finals last month before her latest injury setback.
The 19-year-old had begun Wimbledon last year with Nigel Sears, switched to Andrew Richardson for her US Open triumph and then moved onto Torben Beltz before her most recent association with Torben Beltz.
Despite her propensity to have worked with coaches in short bursts, she is not expected to lack for any suitors.
Raducanu has, though, added to her team with the arrival of Andy Murray’s former fitness trainer in Jez Green.
Green was responsible for making Murray one of the fittest players on tour with rigorous winter training camps in Miami, and was with the former world No1 as he won Wimbledon , the US Open and the Olympic title.
Raducanu is hopeful Green is the answer to her fitness problems which show no signs of abating at the end of the 2022 season.
The British teenager has suffered a litany of setbacks during her first season on the WTA Tour this year from a stiff back to repeated blisters and the current wrist problem, which ruled her out of the Transylvania Open.
