Andy Murray will no longer be working with Novak Djokovic after what has been described as an underwhelming few months together.
The split opens up new possibilities for the Scot, who turns 38 this week.
Murray is thought to want to remain in tennis, having jumped back into the sport with both hands when he joined Djokovic's coaching staff last November.
With his wealth of knowledge and experience, the two-time Wimbledon champion will likely be in demand.

British stars Jack Draper and Emma Raducanu are among the names being mentioned as Murray carefully assesses his next options.
Draper, currently 23, has previously spoken about the possibility of working with Murray.
The British No.1 has been close to Murray for some time and has sought his advice about his game in the past.
When Draper won his first ATP Tour title in Stuttgart last year, Murray insisted that he should aim higher than just being British No.1.
It was an assessment that Draper agreed with, saying at the US Open: "To follow in Andy's footsteps, it's a big achievement for me.
"I know that there's still room for improvement and still room to hopefully go further."

When asked specifically about the possibility of Murray joining his coaching team in the future, Draper was open to the idea.
"Let's see what happens down the line," he replied last November.
"He has got such a big tennis brain. Whatever he brings to any team will have a really positive impact.

"With all the British players when I'm at home I will try to help, whenever I can if any of them wanted to I would try my best to make that happen," he told Eurosport.
"I want to spend time with my family and see my kids growing up as that's something you miss when you are on the road."
Coaching a fellow Brit like Draper could offer Murray the balance he seeks.
"It is a big commitment to coach if you want to do it properly and I want to ensure I do it properly," Murray added.
