    World number two tennis player Novak Djokovic has split with his German coach Boris Becker after three years of partnership.

    Djokovic posted on social media that the decision to part ways was mutual.

    He also said, "The goals we set when we started working together have been completely fulfilled. I want to thank him for the cooperation, teamwork, dedication and commitment."

    History

    Boris Becker joined as Djokovic's coach

    Six grand slams for Djokovic under Becker

    Starting with the Wimbledon in 2014, Novak Djokovic won six grand slams under the guidance of Boris Becker.

    In 2016, Djokovic won the French Open completing a 'Career Grand Slam.'

    Djokovic, however lost his number one title to Andy Murray after a poor performance at the end of 2016.

    His last title win came at the Canadian Open in July 2016.
