Andy 'perfect' fit for Novak
The Citizen|December 04, 2024
Novak Djokovic said shared experiences with Andy Murray (above) make the Scot the "perfect coach" as he bids to win a record 25th Grand Slam in Australia next month.

Murray, a three-time major winner, retired after the Paris Olympics at the age of 37, finally admitting defeat in his long battle against injury.

Last week Djokovic made the surprise announcement that he was teaming up with his long-time British rival in the off-season and in the build-up to the first Grand Slam of the year.

He admitted Murray, born just a week before himself, was caught off-guard but that they "connected really fast".
