Raonic Splits with Coach Ljubicic


Milos Raonic has ended his partnership with co-coach Ivan Ljubicic.

The 14th-ranked Canadian announced the split in a Thanksgiving Day post on Instagram.

"I'd like to thank Ivan Ljubicic for the tremendous amount of support, knowledge and understanding he has given me," Raonic wrote in his post. "The decision has been made that we will not continue our professional relationship in the upcoming year, we will remain close friends and I would like to wish him all the best in his future endeavors."


 

I just wanted to take a moment... #teamMilos

Coach Riccardo Piatti will continue working with Raonic.

Working with Piatti and former world No. 3 Ljubicic, Raonic reached a career-high rank of No. 4 in May.

“Milos is by far the most determined and workaholic person I have ever met,” Ljubicic said earlier this year. “We literally have a problem getting him to rest and that is something we are always working on. His determination is so intense and the level of focus he puts in practice sessions is unmatched in tennis today, at least from what I see. So it is a challenge for us to manage this and allow him to use it to reach his goals.”
