David Goffin announced that he has split with coach Thomas Johansson after a two-year partnership. This is the second time Goffin had worked with Johansson in his career.
After two years of working together, Thomas and I have decided to end our partnership. I would like to thank him for everything he has done for me and all the moments we have shared together. I wish him all the best for the future!
-David Goffin
Goffin has been through a few rough months. In October, he tested positive for COVID-19. He has spoken about a lack of motivation and fatigue.
Johansson also talked about Goffin’s troubles:
I am seeing someone who is not having fun playing anymore. It’s painful seeing that your player isn’t happy on court. I don’t understand this blockage. The players are privileged at this time, they can keep playing their sport and win money, even if the circumstances are difficult.
