Andy Murray’s mum, Judy, has had her say after her son showed his commitment to his coaching work with Novak Djokovic. The Brit joined Djokovic’s team for the off-season and Australian Open, and they recently agreed to extend their partnership indefinitely.

It’s been less than a year since Murray retired, but he’s now decided to get back on the tennis tour for the 24-time Grand Slam champion. He recently jetted to Indian Wells to accompany Djokovic on his campaign and will also be at the Miami Open.

Murray and Djokovic enjoyed one of the sport’s fiercest rivalries, facing off in the finals of all four Grand Slam tournaments and playing for the world No. 1 ranking. But they joined forces after Murray retired, with Djokovic asking his old foe to mentor him.

Fans were bemused watching the three-time Major winner seated in Djokovic’s courtside box during the Australian Open. And Murray will now be back in the Serb’s box for this month’s Masters 1000 events in Indian Wells and Miami, as he flew to the US on Monday.

It’s a big commitment from the retired star, who isn’t keen on travelling for the entire tennis season but is clearly happy to spend several weeks away from home to work with Djokovic.

But Murray’s mum, Judy, doesn’t seem surprised by her son’s decision, and her reaction to the news proves that the Brit has already formed a close working relationship with Djokovic.

“A fine bromance……” Judy tweeted after Murray decided to head to Indian Wells and Miami was announced.

It’s not only a big commitment from Murray, as Djokovic has also surprised the tennis world with his schedule. The current world No. 7 has not competed in the Miami Open since 2019.

In recent years, he has either skipped Indian Wells and Miami altogether, or has only played in Indian Wells to limit his schedule.

Djokovic will be hoping to bounce back after losing his opening match at last month’s Qatar Open to Matteo Berrettini. Murray did not accompany the Serb in Doha, but the pair will reunite in the Californian desert.

During his time in Qatar, Djokovic confirmed that he would continue working with Murray. They initially only agreed to test things out during the Australian Open, but the tournament ended in disappointment when Djokovic was forced to retire injured during the semi-final.

“We had a chat the day after I finished [in Australia],” Djokovic told the ATP last month. “We reflected on the period we spent together.

“We agreed he was going to take some time and think, speak with his family members and see if he decides to keep working. I expressed my desire to continue the collaboration with him so I am really glad he did accept.

“It is indefinite in terms of how long we are going to work together, but we agreed most likely in the States and some clay-court tournaments. We will see how it goes after that.”

Djokovic has a bye into the second round of Indian Wells and will begin his campaign against either Nick Kyrgios or a qualifier.
