Raducanu has been coached by Spaniard Francis Roig since August 2025. Roig was a former coach to Rafael Nadal for the majority of the 22-time Grand Slam champion's career.

Prior to that, Raducanu was being coached by former British No 1 Mark Petchey and enjoyed some positive results since linking up on an informal basis in March.

Raducanu had been without a permanent coach since parting ways with Nick Cavaday in January. Before adding Petchey to her team, the British tennis star had a two-week trial period with Vladimir Platenik.

Highlights of Raducanu against Jessica Pegula from the quarter-final of the Miami Open

But Raducanu recorded her best result in a WTA 1000 event when she reached the quarter-finals of the Miami Open in March, weeks on from being knocked out in the first round at Indian Wells.

Raducanu pulled out of Great Britain's team for the Billie Jean King Cup qualifying round with ties scheduled against Netherlands and Germany, which Britain won to reach the finals later this year.

Her clay-court season began at the Madrid Open, where she impressively recorded a straight-sets win over Suzan Lamens in the opening round before losing out to Ukraine's Marta Kostyuk in a competitive 6-4 2-6 6-2 second-round match.

Raducanu beat Maya Joint, Jil Teichmann and Veronika Kudermetova before falling short against fourth seed Coco Gauff in the last 16 of the Italian Open in Rome.

At the Strasbourg Open, Raducanu defeated world No 17 Daria Kasatkina in what was her first career win over a top-20 player on clay, but then needed treatment on her back during a 4-6 6-1 6-3 loss to Danielle Collins at the last-16 stage.

At the French Open, Raducanu opened her campaign with a first-round victory over China's Wang Xinyu but then suffered a second-round defeat to four-time French Open champion Iga Swiatek, losing 6-1 6-2.

At Queen's Club, Raducanu defeated Cristina Bucșa 6-1 6-2 and Rebecca Sramkova 6-4 6-1 to make the quarter-finals before bowing out to top seed Qinwen Zheng 6-2 6-4.

She missed the Berlin Open but took part at the Eastbourne Open. The seventh seed beat Ann Li but then lost to Australian Maya Joint, despite making a miraculous recovery from 5-2 down in the deciding set before losing in the tie-break.

Raducanu returned to Wimbledon, the scene of her 2021 breakthrough, troubled by a back problem since competing at Strasbourg in May. However, she came through her first-round encounter with fellow Brit Mimi Xu 6-3 6-3 before producing arguably her best performance for years with another 6-3 6-3 success, but this time over 2023 champion Marketa Vondrousova.

She then took on world No 1 Aryna Sabalenka in a thrilling match under the roof, losing a close battle 7-6 (8-6) 6-4 to exit in the third round.

Highlights of Raducanu's historic win at the 2021 US Open

So far, the 2021 US Open victory remains Raducanu's sole success in a major tournament.

She reached the fourth round in Wimbledon that year - a feat she matched in 2024 and might have bettered were it not for injury - but at the Australian and French Opens, she has never progressed beyond the third round.
