Overview

  • Djokovic and Murray mutually decided to part ways after a six-month coaching stint, which began ahead of the Australian Open in January 2025.
  • The collaboration yielded early promise, including a semifinal run at the Australian Open and a Miami Open final, but no titles were secured during their partnership.
  • Djokovic has struggled with form, facing early exits in Monte Carlo and Madrid, and skipping the Italian Open, prompting reassessment ahead of Roland Garros.
  • Both expressed gratitude and emphasized the deepened friendship formed during their time working together, with Murray calling it an 'unbelievable opportunity.'
  • Djokovic has accepted a wildcard into the Geneva Open next week to prepare for the French Open, where he aims to win his 25th Grand Slam title.
