Raducanu not 'actively looking for a coach' after Roig split
Emma Raducanu revealed that she is not "actively looking for a coach" as she prepares for the Indian Wells next month.
Following her second-round exit to Anastasia Potapova at the Australian Open, Raducanu split with coach Francis Roig, who previously worked with Rafael Nadal.
Since then, Raducanu reached just her second WTA final, losing to Sorana Cirstea in straight sets at the Transylvania Open.
The British number one then retired in the opening round of the Qatar Open after struggling with the heat, while she was knocked out in the opening round of the Dubai Tennis Championships by lucky loser Antonia Ruzic most recently.
The 23-year-old is now focused on the Indian Wells, with the main draw starting on March 4, though is not desperate to replace Roig ahead of the tournament.
"Right now I wouldn't say I'm actively looking for a coach," Raducanu told the Guardian.

"I think I had a great experience with Francis. I think in the end, we just weren’t aligning on certain key aspects.
"I have Alexis [Canter] in my corner. He knows me as a person. He knows me as a player and I've actually had some success with him in the past year. So it's going well.
"I know the drills that I need to be doing... just repetition of doing those key fundamentals. I think I want to go back to that and a more aggressive style of playing.
"I'm getting ready for Indian Wells and just trying to get back to full health. And I still have a bit of time, so I'm just looking forward to doing my best to be ready for that."
