Andy Murray may no longer be Novak Djokovic’s coach, but the Scot isn’t slowing down.<\/strong><\/p>\n

In an interview with The Times, Murray revealed he has undergone a drastic career pivot and will become an associate partner at a London-based investment firm, Redrice Ventures.<\/p>\n

\u201cI\u2019m also only 38 years old, so that\u2019s a long time to be retired,” Murray said.<\/p>\n

“My plan was always to spend more time on my other business interests once I\u2019d finished playing tennis, and I\u2019m enjoying starting to work on some of those projects now.\u201d<\/p>\n

Murray had previously collaborated with Redrice Ventures on a co-investment in sportswear company Castore.<\/p>\n

The Scot was first sponsored by Castore in January 2019 before he became a shareholder in the company just two months later.<\/p>\n

Redrice Ventures has also invested in brands that specialise in reusable water bottles, alcohol delivery services and athletic footwear.<\/p>\n

Murray’s role with Redrice Ventures is also not his first foray in business.<\/p>\n

The three-time grand slam champion already holds business interests in a five-star country house hotel in Scotland, a padel organisation and a crowdfunding platform.<\/p>\n

News of Murray’s role with Redrice Ventures arrived nearly a week after it was confirmed his time as Djokovic’s coach had ended.<\/p>\n

The decision was made by a mutual agreement.<\/p>\n

“Thank you, coach Andy, for all the hard work, fun and support over last six months on and off the court – really enjoyed deepening our friendship together,” Djokovic said.<\/p>\n

“Thanks to Novak for the unbelievable opportunity to work together, and thanks to his team for all their hard work over the past six months,” Murray added.<\/p>\n

“I wish Novak all the best for the rest of the season.”<\/p>\n

The tennis world was sent into a frenzy when Murray and Djokovic’s unlikely union was announced last November.<\/p>\n

Murray and Djokovic’s partnership began brightly as the Serbian enjoyed a deep run at the Australian Open, only for his tournament to be curtailed via injury in the semi-finals.<\/p>\n

But since the opening grand slam of the year, Djokovic’s form has plummeted.<\/p>\n

The Serbian has lost the first match in four of his last five tournament appearances.<\/p>\n

Djokovic also reached the final of the Miami Open but was beaten in straight sets by 19-year-old sensation Jakub Mensik.<\/p>\n

The 37-year-old’s attention is now firmly fixated on the French Open, with the main draw to begin on May 25.<\/p>\n

Djokovic is hoping to become a four-time Roland Garros champion having previously triumphed in 2016, 2021 and 2023.<\/p>\n
