Andy Murray and Novak Djokovic are set to work with one another ahead of the 2025 Australian Open.
When news broke that Murray would be coaching Djokovic at next year’s Australian Open, the tennis world was left in a state of shock.
Just months after Murray’s retirement at the Paris Olympics, he is set to return to the sport in a big way, by joining the coaching team of the most successful player in the history of men’s tennis.
The Serb himself made headlines in the French capital earlier this year, as Djokovic won Olympic gold, beating Carlos Alcaraz in the final.
A rare positive result in a tough season for the 37-year-old who will now be looking to get back on track with an exciting new partnership.
Djokovic led the head-to-head 25-11 in his rivalry with Murray, winning several Major finals against the Brit.
Murray did however score one of the biggest wins of his career against Djokovic, as he won the 2016 ATP Finals, to secure his spot as year-end number one.
An incredible rivalry with the makings of an equally incredible partnership, but Djokovic may not have been the first tennis star to ask Murray to join their coaching team.
