Troubled former world number one Marat Safin has decided to take a break from
his Swedish coach Peter Lundgren.
The 26-year-old Russian beat Lleyton Hewitt in the final of the 2005
Australian Open to win his second grand slam but has not won a tournament
since and as a result has slid down the rankings to number 74.
“Marat is not quite himself any more, he doesn't know where he stands,”
said Lundgren.
“He told me: ‘Peter, I have nothing against you but I have to go on my own
for a while'. And I understand him perfectly.
“We have taken a break now and we'll see what happens. Hopefully we'll be
back in autumn with Marat in better shape. And I believe we'll start it off
together then.”
