Annabel Croft Evaluated If Novak Djokovic Should Employ Another Coach

Annabel Croft hail the decision of Novak Djokovic to team up with Marian Vajda one more time, though she questioned if he would require to add another backroom staff member in the coming days. The Serb broke up with his longtime mentor last year in a surprise move as he completely shivered his team. Andre Agassi and, then, Radek Stepanek called on board, but after a hard period marred by a bad form and an elbow problem (long lasting), the pair left Team Djokovic and it was an early exit at the Miami Open after the third consecutive defeat of the player. After a short time, Vajda was seen on court with the winner of 12-time Grand Slam major in Marbella and it was confirmed by different sources that his former coach would join him in the upcoming Masters 1000 event in Monte Carlo.

Although it is not confirmed if both will extend their partnership even after the tournament, but former British No. 1 Croft thinks that it is a good move to bring back his ‘second father’ back to his team. With this move of ‘I am actually not at all surprise”.

‘I had almost expected him to move back to full circle and then come back to his original coach. This is because Marian Vajda has been the kind of second father to Novak Djokovic. He knew Novak very well. I think Novak wanted to go out and check other avenues and investigate what might work, however, it seems like a really good decision.
‘Vajda got him to No. 1 position in the world and have helped him to win Grand Slam titles as well. He did a brilliant job, and it is now a situation of going back to fundamentals.
