“He broke the contract, which is very immoral. It’s his choice, I will respect it. I don’t want to talk about this person anymore.”released the 23rd world player Qinwen, when announcing that her coach, Wim Fissette, was going to reunite with Naomi Osaka (back at the start of 2024 after becoming a mother) with whom he collaborated between 2019 and 2022.
Before her first round against Elena Rybakina in Beijing, the Chinese finally made some additional revelations.
Qinwen Zheng says she cried after Wim Fissette told her he was going back to Naomi Osaka :
“Because during the US Open I knew
he had contact with the team of Osaka. Right after the match, he said to me that he felt like he had no connection with me. He never said that to me… pic.twitter.com/o1vfwe5JkN— The Tennis Letter (@TheTennisLetter) October 1, 2023
“During the US Open, I knew he had contact with the Osaka team. Right after I lost, he told me he felt like he didn’t have a connection with me. He had never said that to me before. I felt very strange. I spoke to my manager. I asked him if he would go to the Osaka team. He told me no, that it wasn’t his style. But after a week later, he suddenly told me that he was going to work with Osaka again. It had a huge impact on me, my team members and my family. I cried when I heard this. There were no arguments, no arguments in our collaboration. There was nothing new for me in this collaboration, but he didn’t do anything wrong either. I thought ending this collaboration was unethical. I understand that Osaka could make him a better offer. I understand that, from his point of view, this is a better position. He has a family to support. I understand his decision, but that doesn’t mean I will forgive him for making such a decision. »
