He has been a coach since 2015, and has worked full-time with Cameron Norrie since 2017, helping him reach a career-high ranking of World No. 8. Lugones and Norrie met while at Texas Christian University; they were teammates on the Horned Frogs, the university's tennis team, in Lugones' final year.
