The 22-year-old tennis player Emma Raducanu ends this year's campaign and has decided to continue with coach for 2026.
Raducanu reached the third round in three Grand Slam tournaments Grand Slams during the season.
The British tennis star Emma Raducanu has withdrawn from the last two tournaments in 2025 due to a health issue she has been fighting over the past 10 days.
At 22 years old was due to play in tournaments in Tokyo and Hong Kong but opted to return home to recover ahead of launching her preparations for 2026.
These plans will include coach Francisco Roig, as they will keep partnering in 2026.
She had her blood pressure taken during her first-round match with Ann Li in Wuhan last week and stopped playing when losing 6-1 4-1 on a very muggy occasion.
She needed once more a visit from the doctor at the Ningbo Open this week, where she was defeated in three sets to Zhu Lin, a Chinese wildcard in the opening round.
She was also playing with clear difficulty in the third set against Zhu due to back discomfort that has troubled her during parts of the season.
Such performances signaled a promising season, in which she climbed into the international top 30 after more than three years in more than three years, concluded with three straight losses.
She held three match points then was defeated by Jessica Pegula in round three in last month's Beijing event.
She secured twenty-eight matches during 2025 and advanced to the semis in Washington, but the highlight of her season was at the Miami Open in March.
The British number one advanced to the quarters of this WTA 1000 tournament, overcoming Emma Navarro, the eighth seed during the tournament prior to a loss in a three-set match to fourth-ranked Pegula.
She was coached by trainer Mark Petchey from Miami until Wimbledon, with Roig assuming the role in time for the US Open.
The original arrangement with the former trainer of Nadal was until the end of the season but they will keep working together, with a training block pencilled in for the end of the year.
The athlete revealed that a three-day test period with Roig after Wimbledon was like a "black ops mission" as they tried to keep the meeting secret.
She came very close to beating world number one Aryna Sabalenka at the first competition with Roig in August's Cincinnati tournament.
The coach also accompanied Raducanu in New York, where she made the third stage prior to losing to 2022 Wimbledon champion Elena Rybakina.
