Andy Murray has begun working with Jack Draper at the All England Club, joining the British No. 1's coaching setup for the grass-court swing ahead of Eastbourne and Wimbledon.
The 39-year-old said he changed his mind about returning to coaching after Draper asked for help, despite saying in April he was not ready to go back on the road.
Draper, 24, has been training with Murray for several weeks at London's National Tennis Centre while recovering from fresh fitness problems that have stalled his rise.
Murray said the immediate goal is to get Draper competing consistently again, though he hopes the partnership can develop into a longer-term role similar to a super-coach arrangement.
Two years after retiring following the Paris 2024 Olympics, Murray said he still does not miss playing enough to attempt a comeback, even as Serena Williams returns to Wimbledon.
