BIRMINGHAM, England (AP) — Former No. 1 Ana Ivanovic is seeking the coach who will help one of the most naturally talented players on the circuit return to the top.
Ever since the Serb with the intimidating serve and lethal forehand won the French Open three years ago, she has struggled on tour. She has yet to get back to the quarterfinals of another Grand Slam. She was ousted in the first round of the recent French Open.
Her lack of confidence has at times been both painful and public.
Injuries have exacerbated her problems, but the physical and psychological issues might be alleviated by the insight and structure provided by a top-class coach.
She says she knows “it’s not easy to find a good coach, but it’s something I should consider again.”
