Andy Murray has decided to split with his longtime coach, Ivan Lendl, after an unsuccessful third stint together. The decision comes after a difficult six months for Murray on the ATP Tour culminated in a dire loss to Alex de Minaur at the Paris Masters after leading 5-2 and match point in the third set.
“Ivan has been by my side at the biggest moments in my career and I can’t thank him enough for all that he’s helped me achieve,” Murray said in a statement. “ He’s a unique character, who understands what it takes to win and I’ve learned an awful lot over the years from him.”
