Sir Andy Murray not ruling out return to coaching despite Novak Djokovic split
@Source: stv.tv
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, a three-time grand slam winner and five-time winner of the men’s title at Queen’s, joked his tennis was now “diabolical” before rallying with a 10-year-old doubles partner on the court.
“My tennis is diabolical, apologies for what you are about to witness,” he said before pairing up with Gloria, 10, for the ceremonial two-round rally against Laura Robson, who won an Olympic silver medal alongside Murray in 2012, and Jay, 7.
“I’ve obviously missed being out here,” he added. “It’s the first time, obviously, not being involved in a grass court season for a while, but I’ve got a new life now and I’m enjoying being away from the sport a little bit.”
Murray added: “This tournament has so many special moments for me. It’s the place where I won my first match on the ATP Tour, it’s my most successful event.
“Coming back here at the start of the British summer and I’m very proud of the results I have here.
“I’m very grateful and thankful for whoever it was who decided to name the stadium this way. I hope there’s lots of great matches and you all enjoy the tennis.”
