Now they will be working together.During Andy Murray’s emotional retirement ceremony this summer at Wimbledon, his interviewer, Sue Barker, wondered whether Murray would be keen to return purely as a spectator.
That marked the start of a rivalry that has linked them for a monumental 26 years. They have faced each other 36 times, including seven grand slam finals, with Djokovic winning 25 of their meetings. “I thought our story may be over, turns out it has one final chapter. It’s time for one of my toughest opponents to step into my corner. Welcome on board, coach Andy Murray.”
This is a fascinating moment for Djokovic as he navigates his final years as a professional. Now 37, he has won everything there is to offer. He showed he can still perform at the highest level this year, but he also struggled and occasionally looked his age. He finished the year ranked seventh having failed to win multiple titles for the first time since 2005.
