Another day, another reboot. Emma Raducanu's tennis career is starting to feel like a Marvel origin story stuck in endless sequels with new coaches, new mentors and fresh hope - but there's no box office smash.
The latest casting? Rafael Nadal's former right-hand man Francis Roig.
It looks like a smart appointment from the outside, but hiring the coaches of the best players in the world doesn't necessarily mean you will become the best player in the world.
If it did, we'd all be sitting here talking about Holger Rune.
The top-10 star hired Severin Luthi, Roger Federer's coach of 15 years, and paired him with Boris Becker, who has guided Novak Djokovic and Jannik Sinner.
He formed an Avengers-style backroom set-up but never got beyond the quarter-finals of a Slam.
It turns out you can have Nick Fury, Iron Man and Captain America in your corner - but if you're swinging the racquet like Thor after a night on the mead, you're not winning any battles.
Raducanu's choice of Roig feels more like drafting in Professor X - a wise, calming presence who's helped shape a generational talent before.
But even with the best minds in your corner, it doesn't give you superpowers. It's about resilience, consistency and turning up every day without needing a cape.
Hamilton spits out dummy
CAN somebody put Lewis Hamilton's dummy back in and place his toys back in the pram.
He's acting like a spoiled child whose toy is no longer working and he wants the entire street to hear about it.
Saying you need replacing the day before a race isn't going to help the team get back on track.
