Djokovic broke up with coach Murray

"Thank you coach Andy for the efforts, joy and support in the past six months in and out of the field," Djokovic wrote on his personal page today. "I really like to closer to our friendship ".

at the same time, Murray announced: "Thank Novak for creating a great opportunity for us to work together.

Djokovic chose Murray as a coach from the end of last year, after breaking up with Goran Ivanisevic. This decision was surprising because the two players used to be rivals in 2010-2016, competing for many great prizes. At that time, Murray was also considered one of the four strong players, besides Djokovic, Roger Federer and Rafael Nadal. Of course, Djokovic has not won any ATP title this year. Serbia player also lost all three matches, all in the Masters. He lost to Jakub Mensik at the final of Miami, then eliminated the first match in Monte Carlo and Madrid.

Djokovic abandoned Masters in Rome, to best prepare for Roland Garros - the second Grand Slam of the year. But nearly two weeks before the solution, Djokovic suddenly terminated the contract with Murray. He has not yet announced who will be the next coach for him at Roland Garros and Wimbledon. According to Serbia Kurir newspaper, Djokovic fired Murray.
