British number one Andy Murray has confirmed that he will retain Amelie Mauresmo as his coach heading into 2016.
The 28-year-old enjoyed a successful 2015, winning two Masters 1000 events, reaching the final of the Australian Open and guiding Great Britain to their first Davis Cup success since 1936.
The Scot has also risen from 11th in the world rankings to a career-high second under the tutelage of Mauresmo, and he is now targeting a first Grand Slam title since his 2013 Wimbledon triumph.
"For me there were a lot of positives last year. But the last step is the most important thing and we need to work hard together to get back to winning the Slams," Murray is quoted as saying by BBC Sport.
"I've just got to find the way to get the wins against the top players in the biggest matches again. Amelie did come in at a difficult time, when I had just come back from back surgery, which was tough.
"When I started working with her officially I was ranked 11 in the world - I had just dropped out of the top 10 for the first time in eight years - and I'm now back up to number two, which is my highest ranking."
Mauresmo, who gave birth to her first child in August, is planning to work with Murray for between 22 and 24 weeks next year.
Murray has, however, parted company with assistant coach Jonas Bjorkman ahead of the 2016 season.
