Novak Djokovic is a 24-time grand slam title winner, Olympic gold medallist and a 99-time ATP competition winner. So why, at 37 years old, does the best tennis player in the world, and arguably in the history of the sport, need a coach? Long relationship ... Andy Murray and Novak Djokovic when they played doubles together at the Australian Open in 2006. Credit: Getty Images It was a surprise when Djokovic named long-time rival Andy Murray as his new coach – a player Djokovic had a 69 per cent win record against – and the duo are set to make their debut at the Brisbane International in January before Djokovic heads to the Australian Open to chase his 25th grand slam title. But former champion-turned-Nine commentator Todd Woodbridge says the pairing isn’t as strange as it seems. “It’s intriguing. Andy Murray for me is this generation’s Lleyton Hewitt, and Ken Rosewell before him, and I say that because they just live, eat, breathe tennis,” Woodbridge says. “Andy can’t keep away from it.” Murray retired from professional tennis in 2024 as a three-time grand slam champion and two-time Olympic gold medallist. And while Djokovic had the upper hand in their head-to-head matches, beating Murray 25 of the 36 times they played, Woodbridge says Murray was the same calibre of athlete. “Andy played everyone that Novak is going to be playing against. So, they’ll be drawing up strategy, game plan, tactics, and what they’ve got to do is find ways for Novak to win matches really quickly, succinctly, keeping energy in the tank, and I think that’s part of the reason he’s been brought along. “But, you know, there’s one more [reason], which is very obvious, and that’s that Novak has had people around him in his last two coaching roles that have been there, done it... So that’s Boris Becker and Goran Ivanisevic. It is impossible to hire someone to come in and tell him things, when he’s already done more than they have. And Andy is on a parallel [with] him.

Shares of MRS Oil Nigeria Plc (CHEVRON) have increased by over 36% month-to-date on the Nigerian stock exchange, bringing its year-to-date performance to 71.42%. On October 29, the company released its third-quarter earnings report, showing a pre-tax profit of N6.2 billion—an increase of 108.9% from N3 billion in 2023. Revenue rose by 141.90% to N169.5 billion, contributing to a year-to-date total of N248.7 billion, with sales of Premium Motor Spirit representing over 85% of the revenue. Related Stories Weekly Market Wrap: Nigerian stock market soars 1.76% as All-Share surpasses N61 trillion, MRS Oil and ETERNA PLC lead gains Nigerian All-Share shatters 100,000 barrier as MRS (Chevron) and WAPIC top gainers Following the earnings announcement, the stock experienced a period of stagnation throughout November, with little notable price movement. However, on December 12, bullish activity resumed, leading to four consecutive days of gains and positioning MRS Oil Nigeria Plc among the top advancers on the Nigerian Exchange for the third week of December. Market trend MRS Oil began 2024 on a positive note, continuing the momentum from the previous year. The stock opened in January at N105 per share and rose to N126, with a trading volume of 2 million shares. February saw further gains, closing at N135 as it entered the N130 range. However, from March to November, the stock experienced limited price movement, reflecting decreased market activity in the second and third quarters. In mid-December, the stock gained traction again, closing strongly for four consecutive days, which resulted in a month-to-date trading volume of 4.1 million shares as of December 20, 2024. Several key factors likely contributed to the bullish price movements of MRS Oil in late 2024. Notably, the release of the earnings report on October 29 was likely a catalyst, revealing a pre-tax profit of N6.2 billion—a remarkable 108.9% increase from N3 billion in 2023. This impressive financial performance was driven by a 141.90% growth in revenue for the quarter, consisting mainly of Premium Motor Spirit sales, which accounted for 85% of the total nine-month revenue of N248.7 billion. Moreover, the recent successful completion of the Federal Government’s inaugural oil bid under the Petroleum Industry Act 2021 further bolstered the company’s prospects. MRS Oil, alongside other major players like TotalEnergies and Sifax, secured Petroleum Prospecting Licenses, outbidding NNPC. These licenses empower the company to explore, develop, and extract hydrocarbons from both onshore and deep offshore oil blocks, likely contributing to the surge in its stock price during the latter part of Q4. MRS Oil recently slashed the pump price of petrol to N935 in its outlets in Lagos, as against the N1,000 sold in early December.
