Andy Murray has revealed how his relationship with the 'Big Three' has evolved over the years, from when he entered the circuit to when he began to stand out, and how much it has changed since he retired from tennis. He has also emphasized the differences between Roger Federer, Rafael Nadal, and Novak Djokovic in dealing with that competitiveness.

Each of them had (and has) different personalities, something the former world number one has talked about on his YouTube channel 'The Switch.' When he was young, he could train with all of them, but as he grew on the circuit, each had a different way of facing it. However, once he stepped away from the circuit and started his career as a coach (he has now embarked on a new journey with Jack Draper), everything is very different now. 

"When I played against those guys, against Federer, Nadal, and Djokovic, my relationship with each of them was different. I never had dinner with any of them while playing. In my opinion, yes, it was a completely different relationship from what it is now," he revealed. In fact, things have changed so much that from November 2024 to last May, he even coached Novak Djokovic, with whom he has a great relationship, although his tenure was short despite achieving good results like reaching the semi-finals at the Australian Open.

The significant difference of Federer compared to Nadal and Djokovic

What is most surprising is what he reveals about Roger Federer, who changed his relationship with him as soon as his level rose. "When I started on the circuit, I trained a lot with Federer at first, and then he no longer wanted to train with me. Normally, if you are an elite player and there is a good young player who has just emerged, you are interested in practicing with him to see how his game is and then, over time, if the young player progresses, he becomes a rival or someone you compete against," he states.

However, everything was different with Nadal and Djokovic, who were more inclined to train with their rivals to know them better. "I used to train a lot with Djokovic and Nadal. I enjoyed training with them to prepare for the big tournaments. Federer would never have trained with Nadal, would never have trained with Djokovic. Djokovic and Nadal were different in that sense, and they wanted to train together or with their closest rivals."

Different minds with similar successes, as all of them ended up making history and becoming legends in their own way. Now, the 'Big Four' share a relationship of respect and admiration among all its members, as seen in Federer's farewell at the Laver Cup or in the tribute to Rafael Nadal at the 2025 Roland Garros, setting a great example for the new generations, showing that once the hatchet is buried, a beautiful friendship can begin.
