Novak Djokovic reflects on the retirements of rivals like Rafael Nadal and Roger Federer, admitting it feels like a part of him has gone too.

Novak and Andy fought for the year-end no. 1 honor in 2016 until the final match. Murray defeated Djokovic in the ATP Finals title clash, securing his only year-end no. 1 season. Both players entered the ATP 250 event in Doha at the beginning of 2017 and reached the final.

Novak Djokovic says his decision to appoint former rival Andy Murray as his coach was "a surprise to everyone" but is "exciting for tennis".

Tennis fans were left stunned as Andy Murray and Novak Djokovic announced a new coaching partnership earlier this year. The move signals a bold ambition from Djokovic, who experienced a Major-less year and has been without a permanent coach since March.

Novak Djokovic believes that Andy Murray’s experiences and similar mindset made him the perfect profile for his new coach. Djokovic stunned the tennis world last weekend when he appointed Murray as his new full-time coach just four months after the Scotsman hung up his racquets.
