Novak Djokovic has confirmed he is in no hurry to appoint a new coach after ending his brief partnership with Andy Murray , as he prepares for a much-needed revival on clay ahead of the French Open. Speaking ahead of his opening match at the Geneva Open against Hungary’s Marton Fucsovics on Wednesday, the former world No.1 emphasised that he feels no urgency to bring in a new figure to his camp.
"At the moment, I'm not in need of a coach," Djokovic said during a press interaction in Geneva. “I don’t need to rush in any context. I feel comfortable with the people around me in the next few tournaments, and we’ll see what happens.”

Djokovic's current team includes Dusan Vemic, who rejoined the Serb’s camp from the U.S., and long-time assistant coach and analyst Boris Bosnjakovic. The Geneva Open will serve as a critical tune-up for the French Open, where Djokovic aims to win a record-breaking 25th Grand Slam title.

The partnership with Murray, which began with promise after Djokovic’s Australian Open win over Carlos Alcaraz, ended following a string of disappointing results and an injury-forced retirement in the semi-final against Alexander Zverev. Djokovic praised Murray despite the split: “My respect towards Andy remains the same, even more actually, I got to know him as a person. I think he has a brilliant tennis IQ… he sees the game incredibly well.”
The 24-time Grand Slam winner admitted his recent form — marked by early exits in Monte Carlo and Madrid — was unfamiliar territory. “I’m not particularly used to having this kind of circumstance… I don’t think it ever happened for me in the last 20 years. But I knew that eventually that moment will come.”
Still, Djokovic remains motivated. “That’s why I’m here, that’s why I’m playing the Geneva tournament… to build my form for Roland Garros and perform at the necessary level to challenge the best.”
While the wait for his 100th ATP title continues, Djokovic insisted he's embracing this new phase of his career with optimism: “It’s just a new chapter that I’m embracing. I’m still connected to tennis and still want to express myself on the court. I feel I still have the game to be a contender for the top Grand Slam titles .”
