Djokovic’s most recent match was a first-round loss to Italy’s Matteo Berrettini at the Qatar Open on February 18, a tournament where Murray was absent.
The Serbian great initially brought in Murray on a trial basis during January’s Australian Open. Djokovic reached the semi-finals in Melbourne but was forced to retire against Germany’s Alexander Zverev due to a hamstring injury.

Following his withdrawal, Djokovic suggested that he and Murray would take time to reflect before deciding on the future of their partnership. Murray, a three-time Grand Slam winner, also remained non-committal at the time.
However, speaking in Qatar last month, Djokovic confirmed that Murray had agreed to continue in his corner and hinted at a collaboration in the U.S., though he stopped short of officially announcing his plans until now.
