Well that is his call if he has decided to work with her full time.I think he would have consulted his family before uniting with Halep full time.Halep and Cahill kept in touch when she was on the road via telephone,also he practiced with her at the USO just recently.

rumor has it that Tatiana Golovina is coming back on tour.I think these former players are broke and see the current players making bank..
Getting in shape and making big bucks with appearance fees is better than dealing with for e.g. corporate office politics..

Golovin never made bank on tour and most likely needs money.I dont think its easy to keep up with these younger players.She has to contend with the Anisomova Kenin and she was a ballbasher who made a lot of errors.

at least they perfected their brand of tennis on the other hand Tatiana was lazy and got injured everytime she played because of poor conditioning.All she did was following Gasquet everywhere hoping to be accepted as a french woman...

Very sad to read that. I look forward to watching her return to the circuit and develop her game early in the new year.

Chanel Nine has the rights to tennis in Australia this year taking over from Chanel Seven.I would imagine Chanel Nine in Perth will televise the Fed Cup in early November.I will post the details nearer to the date in November.

Birmingham loses its status as a WTA Premier event (a new Berlin event takes its Premier status) Birmingham becomes a WTA 'flagship International' event from 2020.
