Novak Djokovic announced on Instagram yesterday that him and coach Goran Ivanisevic have decided to stop working together. Ivanisevic, the big serving Croatian and former Wimbledon champion, started working with Djokovic back in 2018. At the time Djokovic was coming off a difficult period of poor form and injuries; during their partnership they added 12 more Grand Slams to Djokovic's haul.
Much speculation has begun about who Djokovic's new coach will be, but The Tennis Insider has some insider information to share. Djokovic has been receiving coaching from the Serbian Nenad Zimojic in recent days. Nenad was Djokovic's "second coach" during his Wimbledon 2022 title run, and is a former world #1 doubles player. It is not yet confirmed if he will take on a full-time role. Stay tuned!
