Novak Djokovic can’t believe something about his coach-player partnership with Andy Murray.

Novak Djokovic can’t believe something about his coach-player partnership with Andy Murray.

Novak Djokovic is on fire at this year’s Miami Open, with a quarter-final clash against home hope Sebastian Korda up next.

Djokovic disposed of Italian Lorenzo Musetti in straight sets, 6-2, 6-2, in what was a dominant round-of-16 display.

Serena Williams was in attendance for the 24-time grand slam champion’s triumph – as was former US Open champion Juan Martin Del Potro.

Djokovic is a six-time Miami Open champion and is now in the quarter-finals for the eighth time at the Masters 1000 tournament.

The Serb, looking to claim his 100th ATP Tour title, had high praise for his coach and former rival Andy Murray after the match.

Djokovic says it’s still surreal that Andy Murray is his coach
Djokovic and Murray are now two months into their player-coach relationship, but Djokovic still can’t believe it’s a reality.

He told Sky Sports: “Sometimes I pinch myself and ask myself: Is this real? Is this a dream?”

“It’s still surreal in some sense that one of my biggest rivals is my coach.”

“It’s great, we’re trying to get the most out of this relationship and also spend some quality time with together.”

“I think Miami has been really good. We were here early, a week before the tournament started, so we played some golf, we enjoyed some dinners together, so were having fun.”

“I’ve always had tremendous respect for Andy as a player, but now even more as a person. He’s such a nice guy and I’m really grateful that he cares about me, that he cares about me doing well on the court.”
