Andy Murray insists he is ready to take any Novak Djokovic on-court rants - Murray was often emotional towards his box and now finds himself on the other side of the equation

Dan Evans questioned Andy Murray's coaching role with Novak Djokovic ahead of their first tournament together at the Australian Open.

Andy Murray had entrenched himself in a different sport before receiving a "surprise" call from Novak Djokovic, asking for his expertise at the Australian Open.

Andy Murray has insisted he will be “absolutely fine” with Novak Djokovic venting his anger at his coaching team at the Australian Open as long as he is “trying his hardest”. But the Scot admitted working with the Serbian superstar is going to be “stressful” as the Olympic champion seeks to win a record 25th Grand Slam singles title.

Andy Murray has no problem whatsoever if Novak Djokovic needs to ‘vent towards his team’ at the 2025 Australian Open during his matches. Djokovic delighted tennis fans in November when he surprisingly announced his former Big Four rival Murray had joined his coaching set-up on a short-term basis.

Andy Murray admitted that the move to coach Novak Djokovic was very much unexpected as he detailed how he was asked and what his wife Kim thought about the move.

Novak Djokovic's former rival-turned-coach Andy Murray does not want the Serbian to suppress his emotions on court and is even willing to be the target of any angry outbursts as long as the 24-times major winner gives his all at the Australian Open.

Sir Andy Murray has revealed that his shock invitation to work with Novak Djokovic arrived when he was on the golf course – just as he was telling his playing partner that “I can’t imagine anything worse” than coaching.
