“As we are now following our separate ways, I have only respect for Goran – not just for what he’s achieved in tennis, but also for who he is as a person.”
Tsitsipas has been as high as number three in the world and was runner-up to Djokovic at the 2021 French Open and 2023 Australian Open.
He is currently 29th in the rankings and has not gone beyond the second round of a major since last year’s French Open.
“I’ve talked to him a lot of times. If he solves some things outside of tennis, then he’ll return to where he belongs,” Ivansevic told Serbian outlet Sportklub after Tsitsipas’ Wimbledon exit.
“I have never seen a more unprepared player in my life. With this knee, I am three times more fit than him. This is really bad.”
Ivansevic also had a short spell working with former Wimbledon champion Elena Rybakina at the start of the year.
