Andy Murray reflects on coaching Novak Djokovic and explains how he needs to ‘get better’
Andy Murray has admitted he has got a lot to learn in his new job as a coach. But the three-time Grand Slam champion insisted sitting on the side of the court at Majors is a lot easier than playing.
The Scot will hold talks with Novak Djokovic about the future of their coaching relationship after the Serb’s retirement from the Australian Open.
One of Murray’s former coaches has claimed that the former world No.1 is destined to work with a female player – and working with Emma Raducanu would be a “dream partnership” for British tennis.
Whatever the future, the double Olympic champion said he loved his first tournament as a coach – and said the embrace from Djokovic after the quarter-final win over Carlos Alcaraz was a “cool moment”.
And Murray, 37, said: “I always knew that I would enjoy coaching but there are things that I’ve learned about coaching that were maybe a bit different than what I expected.
“There’s certainly areas of coaching that I will need to get better at moving forwards and learn a bit more about, for example, the technical side of the game.
