5 people who could take over as Novak Djokovic's coach

#2 Brad Gilbert

Now a broadcaster, Brad Gilbert was a successful tennis player – and coach!

Brad Gilbert a successful tennis player during the ‘90s, has coached a slew of top stars and has a coaching resume most would die for. Some of the stars he has coached are Andre Agassi, Andy Roddick, Andy Murray, and the Japanese sensation Kei Nishikori.

Gilbert is known to be a highly technical coach and made his bones by coaching Agassi for 8 years. Gilbert’s influence can be measured from the fact that Agassi won 6 of his 8 majors while working with the American. Also, Andy Roddick won his only Grand Slam – the 2003 US Open under Gilbert’s guidance.

In fact, Agassi described Gilbert as “the greatest coach of all time”. He would go on to play a significant role in the rise of Andy Murray and Kei Nishikori as well before guiding Sam Querrey lately. Though he currently works as a broadcaster, there is no doubt that he still has the ability to help Djokovic overcome his ‘comparative’ slump.
