Statement from Sam Stosur

After six years working together my coach David Taylor and I have decided to part ways.

We’ve had a tremendous working relationship and I owe so much of my success to Dave’s hard work and enduring support.

Dave and I started working together during my comeback from Lyme disease, one of the most challenging times of my life. His dedication during the many highs and lows of my career has been unwavering both on and off the court.

I wish Dave all the very best for the future.

During the US Open I’ll be working with the Tennis Australia team, including Fed Cup captain Alicia Molik, and I’ll  start thinking about longer term options after New York.
