The announcement means Murray will join forces with the man who was his biggest nemesis during his professional playing career.
Novak Djokovic has appointed Andy Murray to coach him into and through the Australian Open. Announcing the collaboration, Djokovic said: 'I am excited to have one of my greatest rivals on the same side of the net, as my coach.' He said he was looking forward to the start of the season and competing in Australia alongside Murray, with whom he said he has 'shared many exceptional moments on the Australian soil'.
But Murray claimed victory over Djokovic at the US Open in 2012 and Wimbledon in 2013. In a statement, Murray added: 'I'm going to be joining Novak's team in the off-season, helping him to prepare for the Australian Open. 'I'm really excited for it and looking forward to spending time on the same side of the net as Novak for a change, helping him to achieve his goals.
