Bye, Dad: Sofia Kenin fires father as her coach

Sofia Kenin no longer will be coached by her father, announcing just weeks before the French Open she is "putting together a new technical team.''
Kenin, the Australian Open champion and French Open runner-up in 2020, wrote about the switch on Instagram on Friday.

The post included a photo of Kenin and her dad, Alex, posing with the Australian Open trophy last year.
"I wanted to let everyone know that after many years together I have decided to part ways with my father as my coach. This was not an easy decision for me as we shared many great moments together and had a lot of success,'' Kenin said. ``I will be forever grateful for my dad's sacrifice and contributions towards getting me to where I am today."
