Four-time major winner Jim Courier has shared his thoughts on Emma Raducanu\u2019s encouraging form and her partnership with Mark Petchey.<\/p>\n
Raducanu<\/a> has won 10 of her last 14 matches \u2014 a run that started with her reaching the quarter-finals at the Miami Open in March.<\/p>\n This comes after she won only three of her first nine matches during a difficult start to the 2025 campaign.<\/p>\n The\u00a022-year-old is ranked 41st, which is her highest ranking position since\u00a0August 2022 \u2014 just before she dropped the points from her stunning 2021 US Open title.<\/p>\n The Brit downed world No 43 Wang Xinyu 7-5, 4-6, 6-3 in the opening round of the 2025 French Open. She will face five-time champion Iga Swiatek in the second round.<\/p>\n During a TNT Sports event, Tennis 365 asked Courier about Raducanu\u2019s resurgence and what he expects from the Brit for the rest of the season.<\/p>\n \u201cIt\u2019s a rebuilding year for her, she\u2019s been working on rebuilding her body, now she\u2019s working on rebuilding her confidence,\u201d the American said.<\/p>\n \u201cAnd some of that comes down to also once you get that confidence you get a little bit more aura and you bring some swagger back to the court and that affects how your opponents view playing you as well.<\/p>\n \u201cSo, this is going to be a very interesting rest of the year for her. I wish her the best. I hear she\u2019s a wonderful person.<\/p>\n \u201cI hope that she stays diligent with what she\u2019s doing and stays focused and stays committed to her current team for as long as she can, \u2018cause you want that stability for her \u2014 it\u2019s something that\u2019s been lacking ever since that miracle run in New York.\u201d<\/p>\n Emma Raducanu slams French Open organisers ahead of Iga Swiatek showdown<\/strong><\/a><\/p>\n Emma Raducanu\u2019s alarming health update does not bode well ahead of Iga Swiatek showdown<\/strong><\/a><\/p>\n Courier also revealed he is a fan of Raducanu\u2019s collaboration with Mark Petchey, who she started working with at the Miami Open.<\/p>\n \u201cI do think this works well with Mark Petchey involved in a couple of ways,\u201d the former world No 1 said.<\/p>\n \u201cOne, they knew each other before she became a star. They worked together in private during the Covid lockdown, so he was invested in her before anyone else was interested in her, which is great.<\/p>\n \u201cNumber two, very few people watch and think more about tennis than Mark Petchey. I\u2019m lucky enough to work alongside him.<\/p>\n \u201cThe guy lives and breathes it and he dives deep into the numbers and understands what the modern game looks like. And he\u2019s already trying to help her improve in a few areas.<\/p>\n \u201cSo there\u2019s trust and there\u2019s knowledge, that\u2019s a great base to work off of. And hopefully for her sake, there\u2019ll be some consistency.<\/p>\n \u201cAnd looks like she\u2019s having fun and that\u2019s a lot of it too. You want to be enjoying the process and it all seems to be moving in the right direction at the moment.\u201d<\/p>\n READ NEXT:\u00a0Emma Raducanu reveals how Mark Petchey \u2018has helped me\u2019 and keen on \u2018having a conversation\u2019 with Andy Murray<\/a> The post Former world No 1\u00a0reveals what\u2019s \u2018been lacking\u2019 for Emma Raducanu \u2018ever since miracle US Open run\u2019<\/a> appeared first on Tennis365<\/a>.<\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" Four-time major winner Jim Courier has shared his thoughts on Emma Raducanu\u2019s encouraging form and her partnership with Mark Petchey.
