On March 27, Djokovic declared that he and Ivanisevic were separating. The Serb broke the news to his supporters on social media in a lengthy, heartbreaking letter, thanking Ivanisevic for his time. He said that Ivanisevic was a real friend in addition to being his coach.
Not having won a single title this season, Djokovic’s decision to part ways with Ivanisevic follows a rather quiet season for him. The people seated in Djokovic’s box frequently endure the brunt of his on-court outbursts, which are well-known to all.
A video of the Serb yelling at the team after he couldn’t hold serve against Sinner at the Australian Open emerged online amid his break announcement with Ivanisevic.
