Andy Murray mentioned a few times in his career that he could see himself working as a coach in the future and in a recent interview he named some players he'd love to coach.
Murray is currently playing some grass tennis the Hall of Fame Open in Newport and it was there that Murray was asked about being a coach in the future. The Q and A session had Murray respond to a question about whom he would like to coach from the current players if he were a coach and his response included a couple of big names.
“Female player would be Emma [Raducanu] and male players would be between [Carlos] Alcaraz, [Stefanos] Tsitsipas and Jack Draper. They work hard, they seem like they love the sport. Alcaraz and Tsitsipas haven’t won a slam yet. They’re obviously still very young and I think they have the potential to do it.”
Murray claims that one of the reasons he would be interested in working as a coach after his professional career is over is the exposure to life on the Tour:
"The biggest lesson that I learned is that it is important to enjoy the heighs but you’re often competing at a tournament a few days later and getting overconfident and things like that. You can easily lose in a couple of days so you need to try and stay level-headed. You have to learn to deal with those losses in a positive and constructive way. There are many decisions that I would have done differently and that’s one of the reasons why maybe when I finish playing I quite like the idea of being involved in coaching.”
