Andy Murray and Amelie Mauresmo announced Monday that they had mutually agreed to end the Frenchwoman’s two-year stint as coach of the two-time major champion.

Under Mauresmo’s tutelage, Briton Murray won his first clay-court titles and reached the final of the Australian Open in 2015 and 2016.

“Working with Andy over the last two years has been a fantastic experience for me,” said Mauresmo on her Facebook page.

“I’ve thoroughly enjoyed being part of the great team of people he has around him. Dedicating enough time along with the travel has been a challenge for me. I wish him and team well and I hope he goes on to win many more titles.”
