Murray: "I always knew I'd like to coach".
Andy Murray has just had his first experience as a coach, accompanying Novak Djokovic at the Australian Open.
While it remains to be seen whether or not this collaboration will continue, the Briton takes a rather positive view of the experience.
He declares: "I always knew I'd like to coach. I never thought I wouldn't, but I learned things that were perhaps a little different from what I expected.
There are certainly areas in which I need to improve, such as the technical side of the game.
As a player, I understand the basics, but not extremely well like some very experienced coaches.
Former players are generally quite good at strategy and understand psychology and other aspects of the game.
But there are many other areas of coaching that I need to learn. There are some things I've really enjoyed.
I was very nervous before the games, but when I watched the games, I felt like I could forget about it.
I felt calm on the sidelines and watched, trying to do my job at times.
At the end of the game against Alcaraz or in important moments, you feel nervous, but not as much as when you're playing."
