WTA suspends Elena Rybakina's coach during investigation

express.co.uk — January 3, 2025 at 09:01 AM UTC

Elena Rybakina's coach, Stefano Vukov, has been provisionally suspended by the WTA while under investigation for a breach of the tour's Code of Conduct. This suspension prevents him from obtaining accreditation for the upcoming Australian Open. Rybakina recently announced Vukov's return to her team, despite the ongoing investigation. She has denied any allegations against him and was not involved in the complaints that triggered the inquiry. While Vukov is suspended, he cannot access practice courts or Rybakina's player box at the Australian Open. Rybakina has also hired Goran Ivanisevic as a coach for the season.
