Novak Djokovic and his new coach, Andy Murray, are taking advantage of a new setup at the Australian Open that gives players' entourages a chance to sit right next to the court in special four-seat pods.

Novak Djokovic has admitted he doesn’t want his tennis rivals to pick up on Andy Murray ’s coaching advice while the Briton is in a courtside pod at the Australian Open. Up to four coaches are now allowed to sit in the specialised pods, which are located at the corner of the courts at Melbourne Park.

After dropping his opening set at the Australian Open to Nishesh Basavareddy, Noavk Djokovic eventually asserted himself for a victory to begin his bid for an 11th championship at Melbourne Park and a record 25th major title overall.
