Jack Draper has parted ways with his coach of four years, James Trotman. Under Trotman’s tutelage, Draper won three ATP Tour titles, including Indian Wells, made it to the semi-finals of the 2024 US Open, and reached No. 4 in the world. But the British tennis coach has decided to step back to prioritise his family.
Draper was forced to end his 2025 season early due to an arm injury. The British No. 1 played just one official match after Wimbledon, reaching the second round of the US Open before pulling out of the tournament. He appointed Andy Murray’s former coach, Jamie Delgado, just nine days ago.
Earlier this month, it emerged that Jamie Delgado, the former coach of Andy Murray and Grigor Dimitrov, had joined Draper’s camp.
Delgado had already been tipped to spend the majority of weeks on tour with Draper, though there was still expected to be a place for Trotman in the camp.
However, Trotman, who has two young children, does not feel that he can give the world No. 9 what he needs while spending more time with his own family. But he will always be seen as a part of the team, and Draper expressed his gratitude for his long-time coach.
