With the WTA Tour beginning it’s Asian swing after the US Open, rising French tennis star Lois Boisson has made some changes to her team, as she hopes to end the 2025 season on a strong note.
The Dijon burst into the limelight at the 2025 French Open, where she captured hearts during her passionate run to the semifinals. Boisson defeated 24th seed Elise Mertens in the first round, before taking down former World No.2 Jessica Pegula in the round of 16.
Boisson would face her biggest challenge in the quarterfinal, defeating sixth seed Mirra Andreeva to set up a semifinal showdown with former champion Coco Gauff. Unfortunately, the French woman would fall to the top-ranked American, but not without leaving an indelible mark in front of her home crowd.Prior to the 2025 US Open, Boisson would part ways with coach Florian Reynet, who had worked with her for two years and guided her to her best Grand Slam result. After competing at Flushing Meadows without a coach, where she lost in the first round, Boisson would eventually agree to a collaboration with Spanish coach Carlos Martinez.
Martinez comes with Grand Slam winning experience
The 51-year old Spaniard is no stranger to working with WTA stars. Martinez coached retired Russian player Svetlana Kuznetsova, champion of the 2004 US Open and the 2009 Roland-Garros, for nearly seven years.
