Former Wimbledon champion Marion Bartoli has urged Emma Raducanu to follow Aryna Sabalenka's example and maintain coaching stability after the British star's ninth coaching split since her 2021 US Open triumph. Sabalenka's recent 'Sunshine Double' success, winning both Indian Wells and Miami titles, highlights the benefits of working with the same team, including coach Anton Dubrov since 2020.

Raducanu parted ways with Francisco Roig in January following a second-round Australian Open exit, marking another coaching change in a pattern that concerns tennis veterans. While she reached a final in Romania after the split and worked with Mark Petchey at Indian Wells, Bartoli emphasized that finding the right long-term coach is crucial for Raducanu's development. The 22-year-old is currently working with hitting partner Alexis Canter while searching for her next permanent coach.

Martina Navratilova and Tim Henman have also weighed in on Raducanu's situation, with Henman specifically calling for improved physical resilience to compete with power players like Sabalenka, Swiatek, and Gauff. Raducanu, currently ranked 28th, showed promise by reaching her first final since New York in 2021, but experts agree that both coaching stability and enhanced fitness are essential for her to break into the top 10.
