'I think it's a...' - Daniil Medvedev hails Novak Djokovic-Andy Murray partnership ahead of 2025 Australian Open

Tennis legends Novak Djokovic and Andy Murray have started working together ahead of the 2025 Australian Open, slated to take place on January 12 in Melbourne Park. Notably, Murray wasn't present during the 2025 Brisbane International due to a holiday with his family, but he joined the Serbian star at Melbourne Park and started practicing with him to bolster his preparation to win his 11th Australian Open title with the record-shattering 25th Grand Slam of the career.

Notably, Djokovic has practiced with Carlos Alcaraz in recent days and won the practice set by 7-5 in the intense thriller. Despite losing the quarterfinal thriller to Reilly Opelka in the 2025 Brisbane Open, Nole looks in impressive form in these early days of 2025 and seems like a very dangerous player for the opponents at the 2025 Australian Open, considering his partnership with Scottish player and three-time major champion Andy Murray.

“Yeah, the impact on Novak is tough to say. The thing about coaching Novak, he's so strong, that imagine he wins, is it because of Andy or because it's Novak? I think it's a great partnership in terms of everything, even like energy, like media-wise, tennis-wise, growing like tennis. It's great. Imagine Messi would become the coach of Cristiano Ronaldo. It would be strange," Daniil Medvedev said.
