Justine Henin was not surprised by Novak Djokovic‘s decision to part ways with Andy Murray after just six months.

The veteran Serb began working with Murray ahead of the Australian Open but it was confirmed on Tuesday that they had split.

“I’m not surprised about this decision, we can speak about the timing of it,” Henin told TNT Sports.

“We thought maybe they would have been going to Wimbledon together.

“This is what they said after the Australian Open: ‘Let’s speak about it and if we still want to collaborate’. But did they really expect something? Both of them?

“What is certain is Djokovic knew Andy Murray would be helpful, but it was also to bring something fresh, some power.

“Telling himself: ‘With Andy Murray, I have to find this motivation, to offer him my motivation’.

“He probably thinks about this, about this motivation, and that’s why he has taken this decision now.”
