Novak Djokovic approaches Andy Murray at Olympics ahead of Brit’s potential final match

Murray is retiring after the Paris 2024 Games, where he is competing alongside Dan Evans in the men’s doubles event.

They saved five match points in a row to beat Japan’s Kei Nishikori and Taro Daniel on Sunday night, extending Murray’s career. And their victory caught Djokovic’s attention.

“It’s amazing what he’s been doing,” Djokovic said of his old rival. “Actually, last night I saw the doubles comeback. It’s incredible.”

The 24-time Grand Slam champion caught up with Murray on Monday morning after witnessing his 2-6 7-6(5) [11-9] comeback. Djokovic added: “I saw him today, this morning, and I congratulated him, wished him all the best.

“He’s inspirational honestly with everything he has been through. His injuries, artificial hip. He couldn’t play singles in Wimbledon, it’s unfortunate for him, I know how much it meant to him. But he’s still out there, he’s a warrior, one of the biggest ones that we ever had in our sport.”

Murray also paid tribute to Djokovic ahead of his farewell, taking to Instagram to share a series of photos of the two of them. “Rivals, doubles partners, friends and lovers? (see slide 3),” he wrote, referring to a snap of the pair getting a bit too close to each other.

“Thanks for the 25 years of competition @djokernole and good luck for rest of your career.” But Djokovic refuted the suggestion.
