WTA: Celebrity support for Simona Halep

Simona Halep can count on Darren Cahill anyway. However, the Australian now revealed that there has been another mentor for his protégé for some time: Andre Agassi.

The relationship between Simona Halep and her coach Darren Cahill is very special: So good that Cahill was allowed to enter the box of Halep’s Romanian mentor Ion Tiriac on the final Sunday of the French Open. A privilege granted only to a select few.

Cahill, who works not only as a coach at some tournaments but also as an expert for US television, also has excellent relations with the male tennis site. Especially to Andre Agassi. Apparently he also made a small contribution to Halep’s success in Roland Garros.

“Andre loves coaching,” Cahill now explained. The tennis world would only know about the (meanwhile ended) cooperation with Novak Djokovic – in truth, the eight-time major champion has been helping out where playful need prevails for years. “Andre’s been doing this for ten or even 15 years. “When I worked for Adidas, a lot of people came to him.”

More specifically, Darren Cahill is in exchange with Agassi on Simona Halep: “He has been involved in Simona’s game over the last two years,” says Cahill. “We analyzed together how Simo played in the final, how she handled it mentally – and how she can best shape up for Wimbledon.”
