World No.25 Dayana Yastremska has parted ways with coach Sascha Bajin after nine months of working together. The collaboration was terminated last week, after the Ukrainian’s second-round exit at the US Open.
The 20-year-old Yastremska commented on the split on social media:
I would like to announce that after the US Open, I decided to stop my cooperation with Sascha Bajin. I want to thank him for everything and wish him a good luck! It was a good experience for me.
Bajin’s illustrious career includes an eight-year cooperation with 23-time Grand Slam champion Serena Williams as a hitting partner and he held the same role for two-time Australian Open winner Victoria Azarenka.
