Djokovic may hire Murray's mother as his new coach.

Last week, Novak Djokovic and his coach Goran Ivanisevic ended their successful six-year partnership, having won a total of 12 major titles together. However, it seems that Djokovic is wasting no time in finding a new coach, as reports from Serbia suggest that he is considering none other than Andy Murray's mother, Judy Murray, to take on the role.

Djokovic had a remarkable 2023 season, winning the Australian Open, Roland-Garros, and the US Open, and finishing as the runner-up at Wimbledon. However, this year has presented some challenges for the 24-time Grand Slam champion, with early exits at the Australian Open and Indian Wells. Additionally, there were tensions between Djokovic and his team at the start of the year, and in the past, Ivanisevic has even admitted that coaching the world No.1 was not always easy.

As Djokovic searches for a new coach, Serbian outlet Kurir has reported that two top contenders are Amelie Mauresmo and Conchita Martinez. However, they also mention that Judy Murray is "certainly one of the options," although it is unclear if she would be willing to coach her son's former rival.

There has been speculation surrounding Andy Murray's future in tennis, with many predicting that he may retire soon due to an ongoing ankle injury. Previously, Murray had stated that he is unlikely to play beyond this summer, with Wimbledon or the Paris Olympics potentially being his final events. However, those plans may be in jeopardy after a severe ankle injury at the Miami Open.

Murray's management team has released a statement confirming that he will miss upcoming tournaments and that the length of his absence is still uncertain. There is also the possibility of surgery, and tennis legend Martina Navratilova has suggested that this injury may be the end of Murray's career.

Despite the disappointing news, Murray remains determined to return to the court as soon as possible and has expressed gratitude for the support from his fans. As his situation continues to unfold, he will keep everyone updated.
