Emma Raducanu has parted ways with her coach Francis Roig after just six months she has confirmed on her Instagram.
The former US Open champion announced the split just a week after she exited the Australian Open in the second round.
In her Instagram post, Raducanu wrote: "Francis, thank you for our time together. You have been more than a coach to me and I will cherish the many good times we spent together on the court.
"While we have come to the conclusion together that we ought not to move forward, please know that I am very grateful for all you have taught me and fond of our time shared."
Roig was only hired by Raducanu last summer, having previously worked with Rafael Nadal, but after a frustrating 7-6 (3) 6-2 defeat to 55th ranked Anastasia Popova in Melbourne, the pair have called time on their relationship.
The Spaniard was the ninth coach of Raducanu's short professional tennis career, in which the longest partnership was with Nick Cavaday between 2024 and 2025, lasting 14 months.
The 23-year-old has battled back from significant injury woes to re-emerge among the top 30 again, currently ranked 29th and coming into the Australian Open as the 28th seed.

Speaking following her defeat down under, Raducanu spoke on wanting to play a totally different way going forward.
"I think I'm going to take a few days, get back home and try and just re-evaluate my game a bit," she said.
"Watch it back, see where I can improve. What I have been feeling and also what is visually apparent. I definitely want to feel better on certain shots before I start playing again.
"I want to be playing a different way, and I think the misalignment with how I'm playing right now and how I want to be playing is something that I just want to work on.
"At the end of the day, I just want to hit the ball to the corners and hard. I feel like I'm doing all this variety, and it's not doing what I want it to do. I need to just work on playing in a way more similar to how I was playing when I was younger."
