Bolt split from Biljana Veselinovic late last year after a three-year partnership that saw them win three WTA titles.
The 29-year-old is currently ranked fourth in the UK and has dropped out of the world’s top 100.
Bolt has won just three tour-level matches since Wimbledon and ripped a kidnapper in his final match in Hong Kong last year.
As a result, she missed out on a spot in the main draw of the Australian Open. She is currently the third substitute and will need to win through qualifying at Melbourne Park if there are not enough retirements.
But as Bolt made clear in an interview with BBC Sport in November, she still has plenty she hopes to achieve.
“One thing I’m very clear about with new coaches is that they’re going to be people who have a lot of experience in how to get to the highest level of the sport,” she said.
“I’ve gotten as high as 23rd in the rankings and I know I can get back there. I don’t think my level has dropped anywhere and I think the consistency needs to improve.
“My goal is not to be 50th, 40th, 30th, 20th – we’ve already done that. The goal is to get within 20th place.”
Taking to Instagram, Bolt marked 2026 as “the best year of her life” – when she will marry Australian world number seven Alex de Minaur.
She made it clear that she won’t be mourning the year that just passed.
“Goodbye 2025. Don’t let the door hit you on the way out,” she wrote.
