  • The first chart shows Jo Konta's results for every tournament she played over the three years from 2016 to 2018, which round she got to, the date her last match at each tournament was played and her coach at the time.
  • Over this period Jo Konta had three different coaches (Estaban Carril in 2016, Wim Fisette in 2017 and Michael Joyce in 2018). The different colours represent the results under three different coaches.

  • The chart shows that Jo Konta had her most successful year under Wim Fisette in 2017.
