Novak Djokovic and Andy Murray to discuss ‘next steps’ after sudden end to coaching run - Djokovic said he only had ‘positive’ feedback for coach Murray after injury brought an end to his Australian O

Novak Djokovic's run at the 2025 Australian Open ended in the semifinals. The former world number 1 tried in every way to recover from the adductor injury that had affected him in the previous round, but the miracle did not succeed this time and he had to retire at the end of the first set against Sascha Zverev.

Minnows Uruguay stunned rugby sevens powerhouses Fiji and New Zealand in two astonishing back-to-back upsets on a remarkable opening day of the world sevens series' Perth leg on Friday.

Djokovic shocked the tennis world last year when he appointed recently-retired Murray as his coach on a short-term agreement through to the end of his Open campaign.

Andy Murray will hold talks with Novak Djokovic about his coaching future after the Serbian superstar retired in the semi-finals of the Australian Open. The Scot joined the Serb’s coaching team in November to prepare for the first Grand Slam of the year.

But Australian coach and strategist Craig O’Shannessy, who helped Djokovic claim four grand slam titles between 2017 and 2019, believes Murray’s appointment is proving a masterstroke.

The recently retired Scot says his new charge is undoubtedly the greatest tennis player of all time, but has struggled to stay motivated since winning his first Olympic gold medal last year.
