Emma Raducanu is returning to the WTA Tour in a couple of weeks, and many wonder how she'll play and what the coaching situation will be in the new season.
There are too many things that people wonder about Emma Raducanu and her imminent comeback to tennis. None of that is surprising, as she's one of the most polarizing players in recent memory.
From her crazy breakout at the US Open to her overnight disappearance from the top of tennis, Raducanu has always split people.
Some called her a one-hit wonder, while others argued that she's one of the best players enduring a pretty unlucky spell. This upcoming season has the potential to give us a clear answer or possibly not.
Will she play well? How far on the rankings will she go? Will there be any injury setbacks? Who is going to be the coach? Well, at least for the final one, we know who the coach Down Under will be.
According to Daily Mail, Raducanu turned to former childhood coach Nick Cavaday ahead of her return in Australia. The choice is an interesting one as Cavaday has a lot of experience working with talented players under the Lawn Tennis Association.
Raducanu's coaching choices have been a major talking point, with many failing to see the logic behind her hires, and very few will find some in this one, either.
She's been urged to finally find a coach and settle down a bit because all this change won't do her any good. Cavaday could fill that role as he's previously worked with her and knows her pretty well.
There should be a good rapport between them, but we'll see how things go on the court. Ultimately, that's what will matter most. Her first event is the ASB Tennis Classic in Auckland, which starts on January 1st.
