Pliskova finished 2019 ranked No. 2, but parted with coaches Conchita Martinez and Rennae Stubbs. Pliskova has been working with Dani Vallverdu, who also coaches Stan Wawrinka, and Olga Savchuk.

"So far I cannot really think about anything what I can do better," Pliskova said. "Of course there is plenty of things which I have to improve, but not thinking about next year at all."
