Desperate times/desperate measures? It looks like the struggling
Nicole Vaidisova is making some
much needed changes to her entourage.
The Czech, who lost in the first round of both
Indian Wells + Miami, has decided to drop her stepfather,
Alex Kodat, as coach and has taken on
David Felgate.
Felgate is best known as the coach of the now-retired
Tim Henman.
Nicole has quickly fallen in the rankings after becoming a mainstay in the top-10; she now sits at No. 17 but could drop more since she has a number of points to defend this summer.
I
wondered aloud (as have many) during Indian Wells if the 18-year old's relationship with
Radek Stepanek was a distraction. I guess we'll all have a better idea once she hits the dirt in Berlin -
Felgate's first tournament as coach for
Nicole.
