London: Russian tennis player Maria Sharapova is believed
to have decided to end her relationship with new coach Jimmy Connors, after
losing to American Sloane Stephens in the second round of the Western and
Southern Open at Cincinnati .
According to The Times, the relationship between
Sharapova and Connors is said to have involved a single defeat and a few
practice sessions before the player decided it was not going to work.
It has been less than a month since the tennis player
announced she was going to part ways with coach Thomas Hogstedt to work with
Connors, who was known for his grit in his playing career of more than 20
years.
