World number one Novak Djokovic has announced the end of his working relationship with long-time fitness coach Marco Panichi. The Serbian tennis star expressed his gratitude towards Panichi for his years of dedicated service on Tuesday, signaling a significant change in his coaching team.
This development marks the latest shakeup in Djokovic’s camp. Last month, the 24-time Grand Slam winner ended his five-year partnership with Croatian coach Goran Ivanisevic following an early exit from the Indian Wells tournament. Djokovic had mentioned he was considering going without a coach, indicating a potential shift in how he approaches his training and preparation.
The decision to part ways with key members of his team suggests Djokovic is seeking new strategies to maintain his dominance in the sport. Fans and analysts alike are watching closely to see how these changes will impact his performance in upcoming tournaments.
