In a striking turn of events, Novak Djokovic has enlisted his former rival Andy Murray, a retired three-time Grand Slam champion, as his coach.

The partnership, beginning at the Australian Open in January, marks a significant shift as Murray joins the team of the 24-time Grand Slam winner. “I’m thrilled to have one of my biggest rivals on the same side of the net with me, this time as my coach.

Murray, who retired from competitive tennis following the Olympics in August, expressed his enthusiasm about this new role. “I am very excited about this and look forward to being on the same side of the net for a change. I’m also grateful for the opportunity to help him achieve his goals for the upcoming year,” he said.

Djokovic, who did not secure a Grand Slam title in 2024 and currently ranks seventh globally, shared a reflective video on X, humorously noting, “He never liked retirement anyway.” The Serb, a record 10-time Australian Open champion, hopes to surpass Margaret Court’s record for the most major singles titles, a milestone he’s currently tied with.

Historically, Djokovic and Murray have faced each other 36 times, winning 25 of those encounters. Their rivalry includes 19 finals, seven of which were at Grand Slams. Murray’s highlights include his first Grand Slam win at the 2012 US Open and his historic 2013 Wimbledon victory, making him the first British man to win the title in 77 years.

Reflecting on their long-standing rivalry, Djokovic added, “We played each other since we were boys — 25 years of being rivals, of pushing each other beyond our limits. We had some of the most epic battles in our sport. They called us game-changers, risk-takers, and history-makers. I thought our story might be over. It turns out that it has one final chapter. It’s time for one of my toughest opponents to enter my corner.”

This announcement follows Djokovic’s parting with former coach Goran Ivanisevic in March after a successful tenure with 12 Grand Slam victories. Ivanisevic had previously commented on Djokovic’s relentless pursuit of history, noting, “Especially when something’s not going his way. Sometimes it’s very complicated,” highlighting their collaboration challenges after the 2023 French Open victory.
