Former world No 1 Simona Halep wants to rise back up the rankings and gather more Grand Slams – and she thinks her new coach Patrick Mouratoglou is the man to help her do that.
In an exclusive interview with Tennis Majors, the 30-year-old revealed that she felt “lucky” that the Frenchman was available to work with her after his decade with Serena Williams, and added: “He spent ten years with the best player in the world and she became better than before.”
