Sharapova, Stosur dump their coaches ahead of grand slam
Print Edition
Four-time grand slam title winner and former world No. 1 Maria Sharapova has split with coach Jimmy Connors after just one match.
Australia’s Samantha Stosur has also split with her long-time coach David Taylor, the former US Open champion said yesterday.
Sharapova hired Connors last month in the wake of her Wimbledon second round exit after previous coach Thomas Hogstedt had said that he wanted to cut back on his travel schedule and spend time with his family.
The Sharapova-Connors link-up seemed odd to many when it was announced and the pair apparently had little time to get acquainted with the player trying to heal a hip injury in time to prepares for the US Open which starts on August 26.
Sharapova, who lost in Cincinnati in the second round to American Sloane Stephens on Tuesday, is now in Florida training, while Connors returned quickly to his Santa Barbara base in California.
