Overview
- Raducanu confirmed last week that Andrew Richardson will be her lead coach and that they plan to work together for the rest of the year.
- The pair began training again at the Ferrer Tennis Academy after Raducanu initiated contact with a brief text and a short April training stint.
- Raducanu returned to competition with Richardson but lost in the opening round at Strasbourg and arrives at Roland Garros unseeded with only one clay match under her belt.
- Former players and pundits including John McEnroe and Tim Henman have publicly backed the reunion while urging patience and a focus on rebuilding her fitness and match rhythm.
- Richardson coached Raducanu to her 2021 US Open title and the reunion is meant to provide long‑term stability as she seeks to reestablish consistency and target stronger results on grass this summer.
