Spain only have three representatives left in competition at Roland Garros: Nadal, Carreño and Badosa. Although on the benches there are others who, in addition, once belonged to the famous Navy. Carlos Moyá, former world number one and winner in Paris in 1998, is best known because he coaches Nadal.
But further from the spotlight are Fernando Vicente, who is training Russian Andrey Rublev; Javier Marti, who has just started working with Paula Badosa; and Nicolás Almagro, who was 9th in the ranking and winner of 13 ATP titles, and has recently joined the team of Danielle Collins, the American who eliminated Muguruza, whose coach is the 1994 Wimbledon champion, Conchita Martínez.
“Patrick Muratouglou put us in touch. I have never worked with a coach who has been top-10. It's important because you know what it takes to be at this level, ”says Collins. Do not forget that a great of the Navy, David Ferrer, helps Alexander Zverev, who fell yesterday. And a few days ago, Juan Carlos Ferrero was with Carlos Alcaraz in the preview. The legend continues.
