The German legend was in an identical situation to Emma Raducanu
Recently, Boris Becker spoke on this issue and maintained that the youngster needs to sort her coaching department. The German too won his first Grand Slam title at the age of 17 years, so he can certainly relate to the situation.
The 53-year-old stated, “It’s all very bizarre when it comes to looking for a coach. It’s hard enough to win a grand slam as a teenager, almost impossible. Maybe she should focus on finding a real coach. It would be important for her to have an experienced coach who has already trained with other world-class players.
