British tennis ace Emma Raducanu<\/a> relaxes on a sun-kissed US<\/a> holiday before teaming up with her new trainer – already the eighth coach in her short career<\/a>. The 22 year-old former US Open champion has taken time away from the tennis courts after her Wimbledon<\/a> disappointment to enjoy a sizzling getaway at Martha\u2019s Vineyard.<\/p>\n

The Massachusetts island sits in the Atlantic just south of Cape Cod and is named after the wealthy mother-in-law of English explorer Bartholomew Gosnold, who funded his expedition there in 1602 – the first by a European. But there was no sign in the pictures of 22 year-old Spanish tennis star Carlos Alcaraz<\/a>, who is rumoured to be close friends with Raducanu<\/a> as they are also set to play doubles together at the US Open.<\/p>\n

Raducanu posted holiday snaps of her trip onto her Instagram<\/a> with the caption: “Ted\u2019s on the vineyard – heard it here first. Spontaneous 36h New England summer fun time w friends in MA.”<\/p>\n

Ranked no.33, the Brit played her last match on the 1st of August when she capitulated to world no.7 Amanda Anisimova 6-2 6-1 in the 3rd round in Montreal.<\/p>\n

Now she has hired Rafael Nadal<\/a>‘s former coach Francisco Roig, 57, to be her eighth coach. The Spaniard was in the box for all 22 of Nadal’s Grand Slam titles.<\/p>\n

Raducanu has been with old friend Mark Petchey since Miami and results have been strong but he had to split his time between coaching and his broadcast commitments.<\/p>\n

\u00a0<\/p>\n

Petchey himself said in July: “We are very aware she needs a second coach to come on board and maybe just one coach, not me, as well.”<\/p>\n

It appears that latter option has been chosen, although it is understood that Petchey will remain close to team Raducanu in an informal role.<\/p>\n

The US Open will get underway at the Billie Jean King National Tennis Centre in New York on August 25.<\/p>\n

Singles action will run until September 7, with the men\u2019s final scheduled for that date, with Raducanu\u2019s highly anticipated partnership with Carlos Alcaraz<\/a> set to take place across August 19 and 20.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"British tennis ace Emma Raducanu relaxes on a sun-kissed US holiday before teaming up with her new trainer…\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":321910,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[4105],"tags":[6359,116473,1070,116472,2837,79,1068,16,15,116471],"class_list":{"0":"post-321909","1":"post","2":"type-post","3":"status-publish","4":"format-standard","5":"has-post-thumbnail","7":"category-tennis","8":"tag-carlos-alcaraz","9":"tag-carlos-alcaraz-partnership","10":"tag-emma-raducanu","11":"tag-francisco-roig","12":"tag-holiday","13":"tag-sports","14":"tag-tennis","15":"tag-uk","16":"tag-united-kingdom","17":"tag-us-holiday"},"share_on_mastodon":{"url":"https:\/\/pubeurope.com\/@uk\/114980617189692157","error":""},"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/321909","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=321909"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/321909\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/321910"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=321909"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=321909"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=321909"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
