After working together for only six months, Novak Djokovic and Andy Murray announced Tuesday that they have ended their player-coach relationship. Shortly after his retirement from playing tennis last year, Murray transitioned into coaching and took on his former on-court rival in Djokovic as his first major client.

The start to their partnership had been encouraging, considering that Novak had reached the semifinals at the Australian Open, and it was thought that it would last at least until Wimbledon, but it is likely that the recent negative results have affected this decision.

Andy Murray and Novak Djokovic have decided to end their coaching partnership after just six months. Murray confirmed that he had left his role as Djokovic’s coach ahead of the French Open, even though the pair had previously planned to continue working together at Roland Garros.
