How very weird.
No, it certainly won't make me root for Djoko at all.
I hope Andy will do well as a coach. He was very good as a player with analysing matches and tactics to combat opponents.
I hope Andy enjoys it, but won’t get me routing for Djokovic. Why change the habit if a lifetime…….
I have mixed feelings as well. I just don't like Djoko's attitude. Will be interesting to see how it works out.
Really wished he had chosen someone else but have to trust he knows what's best for him.
I'd just arrived home, after seeing my sister and brother-in-law, when I saw it on the BBC's news. The reporter claimed it was the "last chapter" for Djokovic, which sounded to me, like he was also thinking of retiring.
I don't dislike Djokovic (there was only one of the big 4 that I did) so this coupling will at least get me watching the Australian Slam if only to see Andy in his corner.
Andy will be joining Nole for the Australian Open but Andy is not there for Brisbane this week.
Djokovic did not get a boost in the warm up, lost 7-6,6-3 to Opelka in in the Brisbane quarters.
According to The Times, Andy was flying to Australia last night. Andy was not in Brisbane as he had a prebooked skiing holiday with family. And he spent 10 days with Nole before Xmas.
