Sofia Kenin is looking for a new replacement

So it's the other way around than with Alexander Zverev: The German number one had to go the tough judicial route to finally be able to break away from his former manager Patricio Apey. Completion was only reported a few weeks ago. After almost two years of separation. Zverev had long been hired by Team8, Roger Federer's agency.

Sofia Kenin, on the other hand, would be unwillingly open to new economic adventures from now on. The American, who won the Australian Open last year and reached the finals in Roland Garros, was given notice by her agency Top Five Management.

Difficulties in Kenin's environment

"Due to difficulties with the athlete's environment, the top five management decided not to extend their collaboration with Sofia Kenin," announced the company, which also represents Elina Svitolina, Ons Jabeur and Dayana Yastremska. We wish Kenin the best for the future.

Sofia Kenin won around 4.8 million US dollars in prize money in 2020, and according to Forbes magazine, another million came from advertising contracts.
