太字FEDERER TESTS WITH COACH CAHILL
Roger Federer ended the speculations and confirmed the rumour, that he is training with the former australian top player Darren Cahill.
"It´s true. Cahill is in Dubai, and the test for a few days for a possible cooperation" said Federer via his manager Tony Godsick in NY.
"There´s no decision yet if they will continue. For sure Severin Lüthi will keep on working with Roger, like last year,
when Roger hired Jose Higueras."
43-year old Cahill is a youth-friend of Federer former australian coach Peter Carter who died in an car-accident in South-Africa
( Cahill came to the funeral to Basel). The son of John Cahill, a legendary football-player and - coach comes from Adelaide
and got because of his aggressive way of tennis the nickname "killer". He won Gstaad `98 (in the final vs Hlasek) and San Francisco `91.
That were his only tournament wins. He attended the SF of the US Open `88 , where he beat Boris Becker.
His best ranking was #22. When he retired after a knee inury in `94, he had won about 1,4 Million $.
He was more successfull as a coach. He made Lleyton Hewitt to the Number 1 till they broke up at the end of `01.
After that he worked for 4,5 years with Agassi, who became Number 1 under him again. CAHILL
He still has close connections to the Agassi, who retired in fall 2006. Cahill lives with his wife & 2 children in Las Vegas.
2007 & 2008 he was assistent coach for the Aussie Davis Cup Team. Just two weeks ago he retired from that job,
giving personal reasons as explanation.
The rumour Federer & Cahill could work together lives on since 2004, when Federer broke up with Peter Lundgren.
Federer underlined, that his retirements from dubai and the DC in Birmingham vs the USA have nothing to do with the test-training with Cahill.
"No one should question Rogers honesty according to his back.
He made a selfish and unpopoular decision, but it was the only possibility for his health and his back.
He noticed that his back got a problem again and wanted to eleminate this before it could become a real handicap", said Godsick.
Ready for Indian Wells
Federer has trained hard in the last 2 weeks with Pierre Paganini at his back and is now totally in shape to play without any problems.
He will come to California at the beginning of the next week to play Indian Wells and Miami.
If Cahill will be at his side is not sure yet, said Godsick. The possibility to work together came up in the last weeks,
and in his will to always get better, Roger did not want to let this chance pass him by.
"The test is important for both of them. Although they know and respecht each other,
it could be that their personalities do not match together", said Godsick. by RENE STAUFFER
まだ決定というわけではありません。どちらにとっても、上手くやって行けそうか見極めるテスト期間、という事らしいです。
性格が合うかというのも重要な要素ですから。 (たとえば、B・ギルバートなんかとは絶対に合わないと思うし

)
Severin Lüthi も今まで通りRogi と常に同行するそうです。
ドバイ、D杯とキャンセルしたのは腰の調子が完治しきっていないので、大事に至らないようにしたかったのが理由で、
CAHILLとトレーニングするのが目的だったのではない。
彼は正直だし,いつも向上したいと望んでいるので、たまたま空いた時間にCAHILLとトレーニングできるチャンスを逃したくなかっただけだ、
とGodsickは強調しています。
ですからIWにCAHILLが帯同するかはまだ分からないそうです。
Rogiはこれまで2週間パガニーニさんとフィットネストレーニングを励んで来ました。(・・・それはスイスで行われたのかしらん?)
もう問題はないそうです。で、来週初めにカリフォルニア到着予定です。
こんな記事もあります。 "Federer gets a coach" 見出しがいかにも気が早いですが
