Goran Ivanisevic won one Wimbledon title in his colorful career, but the big-serving Croatian believes he might have won even more if he'd had an ex-player as his coach, like many of the top competitors do today.
"Bad luck I did not have someone like me to coach me," he said on Tuesday. "I should have had this Goran to coach that Goran. Probably I would win at least five, six more Grand Slams."
Ivanisevic, 43, is now part of the latest trend in tennis - the exclusive but steadily growing club of former pro players who have turned to coaching.
