According to The Times, Murray and Djokovic will stay together as the season proceeds as long as present discussions between them go well. Murray and Djokovic are currently deciding on the best schedule for the Serbian to follow this season, with the first ATP Masters tournament of the year at Indian Wells in March likely to be the next meeting point for them. The French Open will get underway in late May, with the start of Wimbledon scheduled for the end of June.

Following Djokovic’s exit from the Australian Open, Murray explained: “It's definitely harder playing, that's for sure. I would dispute people that say that it's harder watching from the sides. I know how stressful it can be out there playing the matches. “I felt a lot of nerves and stuff in the build-up to the matches, but when I was watching it I felt like I was able to sort of switch that off. I felt calm at the side and was sort of watching, trying to do my job.” Discussing the 24-time Grand Slam champion's injury issue, he then stated: “Yeah, it's hard. When you get to that stage of the tournament, you feel like you're getting very close to something very special - and it's unfortunate if the body's not responding in the way that you would like.
