Just in time for Wimbledon, Novak Djokovic has added a familiar face to his team. According to Sascha Ozmo of *Sport Klub*, Goran Ivanisevic is helping the world No. 1.

"This is a huge recognition for me as a coach because Novak doesn't choose coaches just like that, he needs to see that someone can help him," Ivanisevic told Ozmo.

Djokovic's lead coach is still Marian Vajda.

"I am delighted that they've chosen me and I am happy that Marian is on board with it," Ivanisevic said. "First practice went really well and I hope that our collaboration will last."
