Breaking News: Novak Djokovic Announce his first tournament after hiring Andy Murray and public apology
Novak Djokovic has confirmed that his first tournament of the 2025 season, after hiring Andy Murray, will be the Brisbane International.
His new partnership with coach Murray was confirmed last month and they will work together as the Serb bids to win a 25th Grand Slam at the Australian Open in January.
The Brisbane tournament, which runs from December 29 to January 5, is the final event before the first Grand Slam of the year.
But the 10-time winner in Melbourne won’t give fans a first glimpse of Murray as a coach while in Brisbane, as PA claim that Murray won’t be in attendance for the tournament.
Djokovic will also be seeking his 100th ATP title, sitting behind only Jimmy Connors (109) and Roger Federer (103), in a field which also includes Nick Kyrgios and defending champion Grigor Dimitrov.
Murray has partnered up with old foe Djokovic, having lost to the world No. 7 on four occasions in the Australian Open final, but their relationship jokingly started on a sour note due to the player taking some time away from tennis.
