Emma Raducan was named Francisco Roig-Former of the long-time coach Rafael Nadal-like her head coach until the end of the 2025 season, Daily Mail said. The 57 -year -old brings almost 20 years of experience with the highest level when he worked together with Toni Nadal during all 22 victories of Nadala Grand Slam and recently with Matteo Berrettini.
This means Raducanovo’s eighth appointment of full -time coaching since its escape from 2021, which signals renewed pressure on stability and technical growth. He is now leading his team with Roig, seeking a strong performance in the upcoming US Open Swing.
Raducan, 33 years in the world, has been working informally with a former player and transmitter Mark Petchey since March. While Petchey played a key role in her recent revival, his media commitments caused a full -time role.
“We are very aware that he needs a second coach to come aboard, and maybe just one coach, not me,” Petchey said in July.
After a trial period after Wimbledon, Raducan secured Roig’s services from the Cincinnati Open, taking into account the Top 32 WTA and earning the deployed place on the US Open.
Stint Francisco Roig with Rafael Nadal
Roig joined the Nadal coaching team in 2005 as an alternative coach together with Toni Nadalová, later worked under Carlos Moya and Marc Lpez. In December 2022 he officially said goodbye to Nadal and closed an 18 -year partnership.
During his time, Roig was widely praised for his technical expertise and psychological support. A former professional player, who turned to a professional in 1987, achieved nine titles on the World World Chart No. 60 in 1992, won nine ATP titles and was the finalist of another 12.
How did Emma Raducan play recently?
Raducan recently competed for 2025 National Bank Open in Montreal, where she performed in the third round after a loss of 2-6, 1-6 at Wimbledon 2025 Runner-up Amanda Anisimova.
She opened her campaign with a victory of 6-2, 6-4 over Elena-Gabriela Ruse-Narušil five points of premature break-and continued to beat Peyton Stearns in the second round to book her place in the last 16.
Before Montreal, Raducan enjoyed a strong run at 2025 Citi Open in Washington and achieved the semifinals with a victory over Marta Kostyuk, Naomi Osaka and Maria Sakkari before falling on Anna Kalinskaya in direct sets.
