Bouchard Splits With Another Coach After Poor Run

(Reuters) - Eugenie Bouchard's coaching merry-go-round will take another turn after the Canadian announced on Friday she had split with Sam Sumyk following a six months blighted by injury and a succession of early exits from tournaments.

The 21-year-old will be coached temporarily by Serbian Marko Dragic at the Roger's Cup in Toronto as she seeks to rebound from her first-round loss at Wimbledon.

Bouchard parted ways with long-time coach Nick Saviano in November, ending a partnership which saw her reach the semi-finals of three of the four grand slams during last year's break-out season, including a maiden final appearance at Wimbledon.
