Raducanu is part of the Great Britain team which will compete in the Billie Jean King Cup qualifying round in early April, and will be able to spend the next two weeks working with the LTA coaching team.

But she will need a more lasting plan swiftly.

Her clay-court season could take in Stuttgart, Madrid and Rome before thre French Open, and there will be very little respite in the schedule before the end of October.

That plan does not need to revolve around one person.

Many top players employ more than one coach, usually because it is very hard for any one individual to commit to more than 30 weeks on the road each year.

Jack Draper ended last summer’s partnership with Wayne Ferreira as he preferred the “one voice” of James Trotman, but now travels to some events with Alex Ward.

Perhaps things could have worked out differently with Cavaday if an additional coach had been brought into the team when his health problems first arose in the spring of 2024.

Exposure to different personalities and ways of thinking has always been appealing to Raducanu, but the period with Cavaday offered her stability and calmness.

They liked each other, having first established a coaching partnership when Raducanu was a girl. Cavaday was a good sounding board, and there was evidence from her play last spring and summer that the two could flourish in future.
