Sloane Stephens acquires coaching services of Paul Annacone on trial basis

Sloane Stephens of United States have reportedly hired the services of coach Paul Annacone but this partnership is said to be only on a trial basis. This development was reported at Tennis.com.

Annacone was the former coach of Roger Federer and both have split amicable earlier this year. At that time, Annacone is still considering what he will be doing in the future. However, since he and Stephens both reside in Los Angeles, then it was possible for them to work together even for a few hours a day.

The two will be working together during the off season and it is still unknown whether they will continue the partnership during the Australian tennis season. Stephens will be competing at the Hopman Cup later next month in Perth before proceeding to Sydney and Melbourne for the Australian Open 2014 tournament.
