It is a sight that few people could have anticipated a few months ago, but it is now likely to be one of the Australian Open’s biggest draws.
Before the first Grand Slam of 2025, which will take place on Sunday, Novak Djokovic and Andy Murray have their first official practice together in Melbourne.
In late November, Djokovic announced the surprise appointment of long-time partner and good friend Murray to his team, who is aiming for a record-extending 11th Australian Open title and his historic 25th Grand Slam crown.
The pair, both 37, were born seven days apart, but Britain’s three-time major winner Murray ended his playing career following the Paris 2024 Olympic Games in August.
After Olympic champion Djokovic and long-time coach Goran Ivanisevic parted ways, the two former rivals worked together in the off-season.
