🔥 📢 TOP STORY: Andy Murray leaves fans stunned after declaring that partnering with Djokovic — a decision that once divided the tennis world ⚡IH

Andy Murray had become Novak Djokovic’s coach at the end of last year, to general surprise. An experience that lasted only a few months, but was beneficial for the Scot.

It was one of the tennis news stories of the end of the 2024 season. Andy Murray, former world number one and retired for a few months, had become the new coach of his friend and former rival on the ATP Tour, Novak Djokovic. The two men worked together during the first part of the season, from Australia until the end of the clay-court season.

Murray does not regret his collaboration with Djokovic

Together, the two men did not necessarily achieve the expected results, despite a semi-final at the Australian Open and a final at the Miami Masters 1000 in the first two months of the year.

The collaboration between the two men finally ended in May, just before the ATP 250 tournament in Geneva, which Djokovic won after an epic final against Hubert Hurkacz. For The Tennis Podcast, Murray reflected on his partnership with the Serbian legend.

“In hindsight, I’m glad I did it. I was fully committed. I had planned a ski vacation before accepting the position and I explained that to him. But I was there, at 11 p.m., watching videos of his matches in Australia, editing them to send to him.

It’s a shame what happened at the Australian Open with his injury (to his hamstrings), but I saw him play exceptional tennis during that tournament.
After his injury, the months that followed were difficult for him, but also for the team and for all of us.

So yes, I was disappointed. I probably didn’t achieve the results I hoped for him. I think it’s important for a coach to bring positive energy. That’s an aspect I would work on if I were to coach again,” Murray stated according to comments gathered by L’Équipe.
