British number one, Emma Raducanu, has called it off with her coach, Francis Roig, just six months in. She had an early exit from the Australian Open and faced a defeat at the hands of Anastasia Potapova from Austria, who won the second set round at Melbourne Park. It was in August 2025 when Emma began her coaching with Roig, who is best known for coaching Rafael Nadal to 16 of his 22 major titles. Emma had announced her split from coach Francis Roig a week after she exited the Australian Open in the second round.
Emma had reportedly written on her social media, thanking Francis for the time they spent together. She shared that he was more than a coach to her and she would cherish the good times they spent together on the court. She revealed of coming to the conclusion together of not moving forward and expressed her gratefulness to Francis for teaching her and for the shared time.
