Andy Murray and Novak Djokovic have agreed to extend their coaching partnership through to this year's Wimbledon Championships following their successful collaboration at the Australian Open.
The former rivals will continue working together as Djokovic targets both the French Open and Wimbledon titles in the coming months.
The partnership, which began at last month's Australian Open, proved fruitful as Djokovic reached the semi-finals of the tournament.
According to The Times, the pair have committed to maintaining their relationship through the next two Grand Slams of 2025.

However, Djokovic's tournament ended in disappointment as he sustained a hamstring tear during that match.
The injury forced him to retire from his semi-final clash with Alexander Zverev.
Despite the setback, Murray's coaching debut was considered a success, with Djokovic displaying strong performances throughout the tournament until his injury.
The pair are expected to reunite at the Indian Wells Masters in March, where Djokovic is a five-time champion.

ReutersThe tournament will serve as crucial preparation for Djokovic's summer campaign, where the 37-year-old Serb aims to make history.
Already holding a record 24 Grand Slam singles titles, Djokovic will attempt to extend his lead over Rafael Nadal at Roland Garros.
Victory at the French Open would put him three titles clear of the retired Nadal.
Following the French Open, Djokovic will set his sights on equalling Roger Federer's record of eight Wimbledon singles titles.
The Serb currently holds seven Wimbledon championships and will look to draw level with Federer's milestone at this year's tournament.
Despite the partnership's early success, Djokovic was initially cautious about future plans following his Australian Open exit.

"I'll definitely have a chat with Andy and thank him for being here with me.
"We are still hot-headed and disappointed, so it's kind of hard to switch the page and start talking about what the next steps are."
