During an interview with ‘RMC Sports’, former French ace Julien Benneteau opened up on Nole’s decision to hire Murray as his new coach: “It’s not because you were a great player that you are a good coach and that guarantees success as a coach.

It’s time for one of my toughest opponents to step into my corner. Welcome aboard, coach Andy Murray,” the 24-time men’s Grand Slam singles champ posted on social media Saturday.

The recently retired Andy Murray is going to team up with longtime rival Novak Djokovic as his coach, they both announced Saturday, with plans to prepare for — and work together through — the Australian Open in January.
