Coco Gauff has announced the end of her coaching partnership with Spaniard Riba after five months. Gauff achieved her first WTA Finals victory before confirming the split.
Spaniard Riba joined Gauff's coaching team ahead of the 2023 Eastbourne International in June, with the American later hiring Brad Gilbert as a coaching consultant. The 19-year-old won the Citi Open in Washington, Cincinnati Open, and then at Flushing Meadows in New York under their guidance.
'Sometimes people think it's bigger than what it is. Some things just didn't work out. That's all. I still think he's a great guy. He did some amazing things for me personally and also for my game. I'm sure he's gonna be successful in his next step.' Gauff will now work alongside Gilbert, who has previously worked with the likes of Andre Agassi, Andy Roddick and Andy Murray. He is also a tennis commentator and analyst for ESPN.
