Post-Mortem
Sears — father-in-law of Andy Murray — withdrew during Wimbledon due to a family health emergency, not any professional disagreement. There was no falling out. Raducanu finished Wimbledon without a coach and reached the 4th round anyway.
Richardson was a junior-level coach, not a top WTA tour coach. After Raducanu won the US Open and jumped to the Top 25, the LTA and her team concluded she needed someone with experience coaching elite players. Richardson reportedly accepted this was beyond his remit.
Results were actually good — she hit a career-high of No. 10 under Beltz. The split was driven by a broader team restructuring, reportedly linked to LTA involvement and Raducanu's camp wanting a different setup rather than any performance failure.
The most revealing split. Tursunov publicly stated he chose not to renew, citing "red flags" around the player — widely interpreted as concerns about the people surrounding her, decision-making processes, and the difficulty of coaching in that environment.
Not a failure — injuries ended the season before the partnership could develop. Raducanu underwent surgery on both wrists and her ankle in May 2023, forcing a full stop. The split was mutual and without animosity once it was clear 2023 was over.
The longest and most productive partnership of her career ended for the saddest reason — Cavaday disclosed he was dealing with his own serious health issues and could no longer commit to full-time touring. First career Top-10 wins happened under him.
A brief trial that simply didn't click. Platenik was brought in as a stopgap after Cavaday's departure. No chemistry, no results. Both parties moved on quickly. The shortest coaching stint of her career by some margin.
Results were the best since 2022 — first WTA 1000 QF, Wimbledon R3. Petchey left to fulfil full-time punditry obligations with Tennis Channel. A genuine scheduling conflict, not a coaching failure. His eventual return proves there was no bad blood.
Roig — Nadal's coach for 17 years — brought a heavy topspin, high-intensity baseline philosophy that reportedly clashed with Raducanu's natural flat-hitting, aggressive style. Results stalled and the split came after Australian Open 2026. A classic style mismatch.
LTA coach and long-time hitting partner — someone who already knows her game intimately. Final in Transylvania. Remains part of the team alongside Petchey's return. The dual-coach setup is unusual but appears to be working.
The return of Petchey is significant — it's the first time Raducanu has re-hired a coach, suggesting she recognises what worked. His TV commitments are presumably now structured around her schedule. The combination of Petchey's tour experience and Canter's familiarity with her game is arguably the strongest setup she's had since 2024.
