John McEnroe has publicly supported Emma Raducanu's decision to rehire Andrew Richardson, her former coach, whom she initially parted ways with after winning the US Open in 2021. McEnroe described the split as 'nonsensical,' expressing disbelief that Raducanu would change her coaching setup so soon after a major victory. Since that triumph, Raducanu has faced numerous challenges, including a series of injuries and a recent post-viral illness that kept her off the court for two-and-a-half months. As she prepares for the French Open, Raducanu will be unseeded and ranked 37th, having only played one match on clay this season, which she lost to France's Diane Parry. McEnroe, who will be covering the French Open for TNT Sports, expressed skepticism about Raducanu's chances in Paris but remains hopeful for her performance at Wimbledon, suggesting that grass could be a more suitable surface for her skills. He noted that while there are many uncertainties regarding her physical and mental readiness, the reunion with Richardson could prove beneficial in the long run.
