Although Djokovic-Murray’s pairing was in trouble, McEnroe believes Murray’s mother, Judy Murray, was his original coach and went on to captain the British Billie Jean Jean King Cup, and if he decides to pursue that, he will be a very strong coach.
“I believe he will be a great coach, and it’s a very good coach because he knows the game is inside and out,” McEnroe said of Murray. “If Andy wants to do that, I think he will be a very good coach.
“I can’t tell you now, I’ll say what he should do, if he decides to do it. He has four young girls I believe. He’s been traveling all the time [travel]. It would be fun to see what he wanted to do. ”
