Andy Murray coaches Novak Djokovic for first time in public

Novak Djokovic has been spotted training in public for the first time with his new tennis coach, Andy Murray.

Murray retired from competing after the 2024 Olympic Games in Paris. It was announced that he would be joining Djokovic's team in November.

The two-time former Wimbledon champion spent 10 days with Djokovic before Christmas in preparation for the new tennis season.

The former tennis rivals, both aged 37, have now been pictured at Melbourne Park training together for the Australian Open.

The Serbian is looking to win his 11th Australian Open title, and a record 25th Grand Slam tournament.

Speaking about their partnership in an interview with the ATP Tour website last month, Djokovic said: “I think he is bringing a fresh look to my game and I think I will be able to benefit from that, no doubt, on the tennis court

“But also that kind of champion’s mentality that he has, I am sure that we will match very well.”
