Murray parts with coach Maclagan after less than three years
LONDON -- Fourth-ranked Andy Murray is splitting with coach Miles Maclagan after less than three years.
A statement on the British player's website on Tuesday said that "following a review of his coaching needs, Andy has parted company" with Maclagan.
The statement says "the situation" will be reviewed after the U.S. Open from Aug. 30-Sept. 12.
Still searching for his first Grand Slam title, the 23-year-old Murray has been coached by Maclagan since he replaced Brad Gilbert in 2007.
Murray thanked Maclagan for "his positive contribution to my career. We have had a lot of success and fun working together."
Murray is in Los Angeles competing in the Farmers Classic -- his first tournament since losing in the semifinals at Wimbledon.
