Is Mark Knowles the right fit for Raonic?
The Canadian will have a lot to defend at Wimbledon this summer.
Milos Raonic has tried on coaches the same way most people shop for shirts. Maybe he had finally found a comfortable fit in new coach Mark Knowles after parting ways with former Wimbledon champion Richard Krajicek.
In the recent past, the 26-year-old has also worked with John McEnroe, Carlos Moya, Ivan Ljubicic and Fredereck Niemeyer, to name just a few.
The 2016 Wimbledon finalist still struggles often with injures and needs added details to his game if he is to break through for his first major title.
Knowles is a former doubles world No. 1 and won three doubles Grand Slam titles during his career. He has previously coached Mardy Fish.
This is a hire that could help the world No. 6-ranked Raonic refine his net game and improve on the progress he had last year under Moya.
Good health, a jolt from Knowles and continued improvement could be the recipe for another deep Raonic run at Wimbledon.
