John McEnroe has expressed strong support for Andy Murray's decision to coach Jack Draper ahead of the grass-court season. The former champion called the partnership the talk of the town during a TNT Sports appearance. Murray replaced Jamie Delgado earlier this month after his six-month stint with Novak Djokovic ended in May 2025.
McEnroe highlighted Draper's challenging year with injuries and praised the new arrangement. He said on TNT Sports that Draper needed to return to action and described the Murray partnership as one he was very much into. McEnroe contrasted it favorably with the Djokovic coaching role, noting he could not understand that earlier move and comparing it to him asking Ivan Lendl to coach him in 2016.
