Coach as a guarantee of success: Simona Halep is getting in better shape. After reaching the semi-finals at the WTA tournament in Toronto against Coco Gauff, she explained that her neo-coach Patrick Mouratoglou is a big factor in her soaring.

Halep’s Fire is Back: “Before I met Patrick, I was down. I lacked the motivation. I couldn’t work constantly, I was almost done with tennis,” said the 30-year-old, according to “tennisnet.com”. “He gave me back the inner fire and the motivation.”
