Djokovic announced this past week that Murray would join his team as a coach at least through the 2025 Australian Open.

Novak Djokovic has taken on Andy Murray as his coach for the Australian Open. It makes sense to put half of the original Big Four in men's tennis together again.

Novak Djokovic says his decision to appoint former rival Andy Murray as his coach was "a surprise to everyone" but is "exciting for tennis".

Murray will coach his long-time rival at the Australian Open in January after the pair announced a surprise alliance

Tennis fans were left stunned as Andy Murray and Novak Djokovic announced a new coaching partnership earlier this year. The move signals a bold ambition from Djokovic, who experienced a Major-less year and has been without a permanent coach since March.

Novak Djokovic believes that Andy Murray’s experiences and similar mindset made him the perfect profile for his new coach. Djokovic stunned the tennis world last weekend when he appointed Murray as his new full-time coach just four months after the Scotsman hung up his racquets.

Andy Murray turned down the opportunity to work with top players on both the ATP and WTA tours before becoming Novak Djokovic’s coach, according to Andy Roddick. Roddick revealed Murray was approached by “many” high-ranked players in the months following his retirement from tennis.
