Kim Clijsters announces her return to tennis after 7 years, Simona Halep announces that Darren Cahill will rejoin her team next year and now Naomi Osaka announces her split from Jermaine Jenkins. Anyone else?

In the WTA, you either fire or sleep with your coach. Or both.

Can you fire your coach while he's at the peak? I mean while you two are doing it. Now I call that going with a bang!

Nah, she'll probably do something stupid and sabotage her own career.
Like every other player who was meant to become great in the past 10 years.

Who?The only good thing she came out of this experiment, is learning to show respect to coaches.

Often the problem is more the parents than the athlete.
Albeit I wouldn't judge the situation yet, maybe jenkins wasn't the right guy and she will find him now. Two bad choices in a row look bad but it can happen. If it is 3 or 4 that would be different of course.

He's a tennis player from Germany who didn't show respect to his coach recently. Fans thought he'll succeed the big 3... But it's Ok, nevermind

Meanwhile ... the Osakas just had a big win in court (of law) since her old coach's (Christophe Jean) lawsuit was dismissed this past Friday by a judge in Broward County, Florida.

The only thing that could derail her is injuries.
The self-sabotage of the top female players over the past few years is extraordinary. It's happening too often to be mere coincidence. It makes you wonder whether it's some sort of systemic issue (not that I could imagine what that might be). Bianca seems very competitive and tough as nails, so she may finally break the mold. But - she's injury prone. Darn! So Serena will keep getting to GS finals till she's 46 and will likely win a couple of them.
You say this about the women’s as if the men don’t self sabotage...?

Um how about the majority of top players outside the big 3. Carreno Busta, Zverev, fognini, monfils, Paire, Dimitrov, Medvedev, Verdasco... we can go on
Because empathy has not helped you to make a decision, its basically the equivalent to you talking to yourself in the mirror and saying positive things about yourself. It might make you feel good in the short term but it hasn't helped you to make a better decision.
Its like asking: "what should I do - go left or go right?"
Their answer: "Yes".

These quotes aged well.
Osaka splits from Jermaine, goes on a 10 match winning streak winning Tokyo and then Premier Mandatory Beijing with wins over... Andreescu, Wozniacki and Barty.
