“Excited” Murray to coach arch rival Djokovic
Recently retired three time Grand Slam Champion Andy Murray has shocked the Tennis world by announcing today that he will coach Novak Djokovic as he chases his 25th Grand Slam victory and his 11th Australian Open title in Melbourne in January 2025.
Four of Djokovic’s victories have come against Murray.

The legendary Serb finally got his hands on singles Olympic gold for the first time in last summer’s Paris Games, as andy Murray retired.
Whilst the Scot was anticipated to get into coaching at some stage he has surprised the tennis by teaming up with Djokovic, the current World # 7 so soon after retiring.
Murray said today “I’m going to be joining Novak’s team in the off season, helping him to prepare for the Australian Open,
“I’m really excited for it and looking forward to spending time on the same side of the net as Novak for a change, helping him to achieve his goals.”
