Murray not ruling out return to coaching despite Djokovic split
Andy Murray at Queen's Club, June 9, 2025

SIR ANDY MURRAY has not ruled out a return to coaching despite his short-lived link-up with former world number one Novak Djokovic coming to an end after just four tournaments last month.

Murray was speaking at Queen’s Club in London, whose centre court was officially inaugurated as the Andy Murray Arena on Monday ahead of the venue’s new WTA 500 event, the first time the west London site has hosted women’s tennis in 52 years.

Murray, who retired from playing after the 2024 Olympics, linked up with Djokovic in November and despite the pair terminating their relationship in May, the 38-year-old says he may accept a similar role in the future.

Murray told BBC Sport: “I would do it again at some stage. I don’t think that will happen immediately.

“I wasn’t planning on going into coaching as soon as I finished playing but it was a pretty unique opportunity. It was a chance to learn from one of the best athletes of all time.

“It was a brilliant opportunity for me. We got to spend some really nice moments away from the court. Results weren’t as we wanted but we gave it a go.”
