Murray said in a statement, "Thanks to Novak for the unbelievable opportunity to work together and thanks to his team for all their hard work over the past six months."

The partnership between Djokovic and Murray ran just six months and was unsuccessful. The two former rivals teamed up in November 2024, originally intended for the start of the 2025 season and to take it one tournament at a time after the Australian Open.

In February, Djokovic said Murray would remain on his coaching staff at least through Wimbledon. However, that was before Djokovic's dreadful Spring season.
