Jim Courier suggests Novak Djokovic may have been looking for "a spark" ahead of the French Open and Wimbledon and figured out that ditching Andy Murray could help him in his goal. On Tuesday morning European time, the record 24-time Grand Slam champion announced he and the British tennis legend were ending their partnership after six months.

Novak Djokovic and coach Andy Murray ended their partnership after six months, they said Tuesday. Djokovic announced in November that he hired Murray. The 24-time Grand Slam winner was ranked No. 7 in the world at the time.

In the women's draw, Coco Gauff will be hoping to follow up her thumping win over Raducanu by beating Mirra Andreeva, while Aryna Sabalenka faces a similarly tricky test against Olympic champion Zheng Qinwen.
