Epic reunion: Djokovic and Murray train together at Indian Wells – And here’s what happened

Novak Djokovic is fine-tuning the last details for his Indian Wells appearance, with Andy Murray by his side once again. The two former rivals were spotted training together once more after their adventure at the past Australian Open.

The Serbian announced his partnership with Murray late last year, although Murray hasn’t been with Djokovic at every tournament. Nole attended Brisbane without a coach and recently had Fernando Verdasco as a temporary coach in Qatar. Only at the Aussie Open has Murray worked alongside the 24-time Grand Slam champion.

However, the exciting partnership is back in action at Tennis Paradise, as the five-time Indian Wells champion prepares for his return to the courts. The fifth seed is waiting to find out his opponent, which will be either Nick Kyrgios or lucky loser Botic Van de Zandschulp.

In this session, Djokovic not only trained with Murray but also shared some batting time with Norwegian Casper Ruud. Nole looks physically good so far, despite a recent thigh injury. The former world No. 1 had to retire in the semifinals of the Australian Open, but he quickly returned to play in the Qatar Open just a couple of weeks later

Despite a first-round loss to Matteo Berrettini (6-7, 2-6), Nole’s appearance in Doha was significant as he has commitments as an ambassador for tennis.

However, there's no doubt Djokovic will aim for ultimate glory at Indian Wells. With Murray by his side, he has recorded five wins and one loss (the retirement against Alexander Zverev in Melbourne).
