'I trust both of them a lot': Emma Raducanu announces her coaching team for the Grass swing

However, Cavaday won’t just be at the Queen’s Club Championships this upcoming week, as Raducanu revealed: "They'll both be helping me throughout the grass" . This isn’t the first time the former US Open champion has called upon previous coaches in her career, as her current coach, Mark Petchey, rejoined her team on an ad-hoc basis earlier this year after previously working with Raducanu in 2020.

The one-time Grand Slam champion is looking forward to having two of her most trusted coaches in her corner for the upcoming grass swing.

“I think having Mark and Nick, both people who have banks of experience, and I think they can complement each other really well. I trust both of them a lot,” Raducanu declared. “So that is a big fundamental for me. So, yeah, I’m looking forward to this upcoming season and seeing how it goes".

Raducanu has a very busy schedule ahead, as she is due to compete in the Queen’s Club Championships next week, whilst also having entered tournaments in Berlin and Eastbourne ahead of Wimbledon.

Speaking before her first match at Queen’s, Raducanu was buzzing to be back: “I’m happy to be here at Queen’s. It’s an event that I came to when I was younger, so to be back and playing it is amazing".

The British No. 2 will also pair up with Katie Boulter to play in the doubles event at Queen’s as well. Raducanu heaped praise on her partner: “I really like Katie and being on court with her is going to be great. Hopefully she’s going to give me a lot of direction on what to do, tell me what to do, and I’ll try and execute".

Looking ahead to this new experience, it seems as if Raducanu is willing to give anything a try in the upcoming months to bolster her chances of success: “I haven’t played much doubles, so for me this is extremely new and I’m not sure how it’s going to go, but it’ll be a good learning experience regardless!”.
