British number two Jack Draper has brought Andy Murray into his coaching team for the grass-court season after parting company with Jamie Delgado.

Three-time Grand Slam champion Murray has not been involved on the tour since a six-month stint coaching Novak Djokovic ended last year.

Former world number one Murray, 38, will be part of Draper's team for the grass-court season, including Wimbledon, which begins on 29 June.

"I am very grateful for everything Jamie Delgado has done for me over these past six months. He is a world-class coach and a great man," said Draper.

"In the interim, I will continue to be supported by the excellent team at the LTA, with the addition of Andy Murray, who will be supporting me throughout the grass-court season."

Draper, 24, has struggled with a catalogue of injuries in his career and will skip this month's French Open because of a knee injury.

He plans to return for the grass-court swing after Roland Garros, but has yet to finalise his schedule.

A comeback at the start of June in Stuttgart - where Draper won his first ATP title in 2024 - remains a possibility, with Queen's in London taking place a week later.

Draper hired Delgado, who worked with Murray when he became world number one, as head coach in October.

However, they worked together at only four tournaments this season because of Draper's injury problems.
