Since the Kazakh player parted ways with her coach, it seems that some things are not going well. She has notably withdrawn from the Asian tour.
While some observers have already sounded the alarm about her mental health, a Russian journalist goes much further by evoking the toxic relationship that existed between her coach and Elena. If the facts are correct, it is easy to understand why the champion no longer wants to go fight on a court.
“Many people do not understand the reason for his health problems. They say that he has back problems, that is the official reason; he also had stomach problems. However, as people involved in his professional career have mentioned, now Elena herself is under a lot of stress, it is something psychosomatic. She is in a chaotic moment, in a completely disorganized state, she cannot play. All these difficulties she is facing at the moment come from the enormous pressure generated by her former coach” explains journalist Sony Tartakova.
“It is clear that they were very close with Stefanos Vukov, her lifelong coach, that she lived the best moments of her career thanks to the work together, but her parents insisted that Lena also needed a change in her tennis life because there was too much pressure, insults, bad words that constantly came out of Vukov’s lips.
