Sebastian Korda had a fantastic idea of having in his coaching team Radek Stepanek. The Czeck coach has a huge amount of experience, and he is quite well known for having a rather turbulent “romantic life.” Radek used to date a long list of tennis players, such as Martina Hingis, Petra Kvitova, Nicole Vaidisova, to be considered a sort of Casanova on the tennis tour. Tennis fans on social media slammed Stepanek after he was caught in what many considered a “too comfortable” hug to Sebastian Korda’s girlfriend when the American player withdrew in his match against Karen Khachanov in the quarters of the Australian Open.
