According to Tennis.life, reigning world No.1 Simona Halep and WTA Fan Favorite player of the year currently doesn’t have a clothing sponsor secured for 2018, as Adidas is not renewing her contract.
When asked about this issue, manager Virginia Ruzici responded via email “No comment”, so she neither confirmed, nor did she say the shocking news was not true. As Tennis.life states, the reason for the separation is that Halep’s representatives asked for a more valuable contract, given the Romanian’s improved status and on-court achievements, but Adidas’ offer was not living up to their expectations.
