John McEnroe seems interested in coaching Andy Murray

John McEnroe thinks that Andy Murray can stand to benefit from hiring another super coach to assist him, and it sounds like the former tennis champion would be interested in the gig.

McEnroe talked about Murray’s game following the Scotsman’s loss to Novak Djokovic in the finals of the French Open. You get the sense from the comments that Johnny Mac might want to help out Murray.

“When you look at someone who’s that good, you’re always interested. Andy is extremely professional. He won a couple of majors. So you’re talking about the cream of the crop.

“I don’t recall ever getting a call,” McEnroe added via The Telegraph. “It depends on what type of commitment you’re talking about and for how long. There was never any discussion. I never heard from anyone. It’s been a win-win for Boris [Becker] and Novak as an example. I think clearly my old rival Ivan Lendl made a positive difference with Andy.”

McEnroe isn’t available to coach Murray since he recently signed on to help Milos Raonic prepare for Wimbledon.

What’s interesting is that in 2014, McEnroe made similar comments about having interest in coaching Murray if he reached out. At that time, McEnroe also identified Raonic and Grigor Dimitrov as two emerging players who could be the stars of the next era, so it’s no surprise he’s now helping Raonic.

With McEnroe thinking Murray needs another super coach, he even brought up the possibility of Murray reuniting with Ivan Lendl as long as their relationship is still solid, which is an unknown.

Murray recently parted ways with Amelie Mauresmo and is being coached by assistant Jamie Delgado.
