They called us ‘Game Changers’, ‘Risk Takers’, ‘History Makers’. I thought our story might be over, but it turns out it has a final chapter. It’s time for one of my toughest rivals to pass by me. Welcome aboard, coach Andy Murray,” the Balkan announced on social media with the message “he never liked being retired.”
