Andy Murray and Jack Draper are once again working together, with Draper set to return at the Mubadala DC Open. Murray had initially joined Draper's team for a limited period, stating it would only last "a few weeks" and conclude after Wimbledon, due to his desire to maintain family time.

Draper, who missed Wimbledon due to a bone bruising in his left arm, has seen his ranking drop to 147 after a season hampered by injury. He was observed training with Murray at the William HG Fitz Gerald Tennis Center, appearing to hit the ball well.

This reunion comes after Draper expressed gratitude for Murray's ongoing support, calling him an inspiration. Murray's involvement was initially a condition-based arrangement, allowing him flexibility for family commitments. Draper's return to action at the Mubadala DC Open marks a significant step after a challenging period with his arm injury, which has led him to miss several Grand Slams.
