“Thanks for everything, my friend,” GORAN IVANISEVIC AND NOVAK DJOKOVIC SAY AS THE WORLD NO. 1 PARTY
After six years of incredible success together, Novak Djokovic and Goran Ivanisevic will no longer be a player-coach duo. Ivanisevic is well known for having helped the 24-time Grand Slam winner significantly improve his serve, which has grown into one of the best in the world as the Serb has gone on to dominate the men’s game. Ivanisevic joined Djokovic’s squad in 2018.
After losing at Indian Wells, Djokovic remarked, “I am locked in a poor cycle.”

The Croatian has been an integral part of Djokovic’s team since 2018, helping the Serb to his current record-breaking tally of 24 Grand Slam singles triumphs.
Ivanisevic has been given extra credit for helping Djokovic achieve continuous Grand Slam victories and a competitive edge over his rivals during that time by considerably enhancing his serve.

Djokovic posted a heartfelt tribute to Ivanisevic on Instagram in addition to announcing the news.
Djokovic remarked, “I still remember exactly when I invited Goran to join my squad.”
“Back in 2018, we wanted to try something new and add some more magic to our duet.” That’s what Marian and I said.In fact, since then, the year-end rankings have seen 12 additional Grand Slams (along with a few finals) added to the record, records broken, a ton of laughter, and amazing times.Did I mention that there was drama as well?Goran and I decided a few days ago to stop working together. Our on-court chemistry had its ups and downs, but our relationship never wavered.
“Thank you very much for everything, my friend. I treasure you.
