Andy Murray has split with long-term coach Jamie Delgado ahead of the 2022 season.

LONDON (AFP) - Andy Murray has split with long-term coach Jamie Delgado ahead of the 2022 season, according to reports in the British media on Friday.

Delgado has been in Murray s team since 2016, helping him to a second Wimbledon title and the world number one spot in the same year.

He took over as the main coach from Ivan Lendl in 2017, before Murray s career was derailed by hip injuries.

Despite returning to the ATP tour following two surgeries, the 34-year-old has slipped to 134th in the world.

Delgado will work with Canadian Denis Shapovalov, who is ranked 14th in the world, the reports said.

Murray will continue a trial with German Jan De Witt at an exhibition event in Abu Dhabi next week as he prepares for next month s Australian Open.

The Scot, who has recently worked with Johanna Konta s former coach Esteban Carril, will play Dominic Thiem at the Mubadala World Tennis Championship, with a match against Rafael Nadal if he beats the Austrian.
