Agassi Teams Up With Djokovic At French Open

Novak Djokovic is working with Andre Agassi at Roland Garros ahead of the start of the French Open.

Djokovic confirmed Agassi would be his coach at the French Open after being humbled by German youngster Alexander Zverev in the final of the Italian Open last week.

The Serb, beaten 6-4 6-3 by Zverev in the Rome sunshine, said he would join up with eight-times grand slam champion Agassi as he prepares to defend his Roland Garros crown.

Djokovic did not say whether the partnership would be long term.

Earlier this month the former world number one split with his long-time coach Marian Vajda as well as fitness coach Gebhard Phil-Gritsch and physio Miljan Amanovic.

Boris Becker left the Djokovic entourage last December after three successful years together.
