Radwanska’s curse recurs

27th January 2012

Agnieszka Radwanska was knocked out of the Australian Open at the quarter final stage this week - the fifth time she’s failed to progress at this stage of a Grand Slam. Despite a strong start in her match against Viktoria Azarenka, the Krakow player slumped to defeat in three sets. She now flies on to the next tournament accompanied by rumours of a change of trainer.

Against Azarenka, Radwanska competed fiercely in the first set, eventually taking it on the tie-break 7-6. The second set, though, was a disaster, as the Belarus player blew Radwanska away 6-0 in a mere 26 minutes. Radwanska rallied at the start of the third, briefly holding onto Azarenka’s coat tails, but then she flopped again, going down 6-2.

Now, it seems that both Radwanska sisters have decided on a change of trainer, with the Pole, Tomasz Wiktorowski, being dumped in favour of the Croat Borna Bikic, who used to train Jelena Dokic.
