Just learned something there - not sure why but I thought Valverdu was with Grigor Dimitrov but he is with Del Potro.

I thought he was switching from Del Potro to Dimitrov at some point after the Olympics. Maybe they have delayed it.
i thought Dani had just settled in europe, hence coachng grigor,not delBoy cos of travelling

I thought so too and I also thought that Dani had been seen practising with Dimitrov in New York but maybe I have that wrong.
Havnt you missed alex corretja sally ?

Harriet & Alis are correct!! Dani was only with Del Potro for Wimbledon!

Novak's first coach was Jelena Gencic. Then Niki Pilic.
Dom Thiem is now coached by Joakim Nystrom, but until recently was Gunter Bresnik (changed in June).
I thought Nadal's should have bee Uncle Toni.

I took it that's who is meant by Nadal.

Raonic McEnroe parting company for now anyway. Guess commentating on your own player doesn't really work out............

That was quick! Johnny Mac commentating on the Raonic match at Wimbledon was wrong on so many levels - I'm pretty sure the Beeb had loads of complaints about it. Coaching and commentating at the same tournament was never going to work. Probably the right choice for Mac - maybe not so good for Milos.
Thought it was only ever for Wimbledon because of Mac's other commitments.
Raonic did say he'd spent some time with mc before cinci but I think it was more advice on the mental side. It was weird for mc to take on coaching without ending his other responsibilities. Maybe he'll go back to it the future
Do you think this is Neil Harman's surprise 'twist'?

Think it was for Wimbledon initially then see how it went. Otherwise Mac wouldn't have to make the statement now. He doesn't seem clear whether it is finally over or not! He has such an ego - not sure how he can be a really good coach. Mind you Lendl has quite an ego too! ;)
Can anyone see Federer as a coach?

Can see him travelling in a coach bedecked in gold finery and acknowledging the adoration of his worshippers.
Lol supergran :rolling::rolling::rolling::rolling::rolling:

Not so sure he would like not being the main attraction. Coaches sit on the sidelines and don't get fawned on by the adoring public. Mr Ego would have to do some adjusting
