Coaching career
He was the coach of all-time great Steffi Graf, from the start of 1992 until the end of Graf's tennis playing career in July 1999, and he has also worked briefly with Jelena Dokić and Jennifer Capriati.
From February to November 2010 he coached former WTA World No. 1 Ana Ivanovic. Günthardt had previously not coached full-time since Steffi Graf announced her retirement in 1999. When Günthardt started coaching her, Ivanovic had just dropped out of the WTA's top 20, and she dropped to a career low of World No. 65 in July 2010; but, she recovered to World No. 17 before he ended his coaching relationship with her, due to his inability to coach and travel with Ivanovic full-time due to family responsibilities.
