A season where Murray's backhand was no longer a consistent weapon. That all happened a year removed from a disastrous season following back surgery, Lendl leaving and falling out with long term teammates Green and Valverdu.

In 2015 Murray finished at the highest ranking of his career, he returned to a Grand Slam final, he broke through on clay winning two titles including the Madrid Masters, he finally defeated Novak again in winning the Rogers Cup, he won titles on all three surfaces and won Davis Cup in one of the greatest and most unheard runs in the history of the event. I give Amelie Mauresmo a lot of credit for that quick and stunning transformation. To be in the 2015 Australian Open Final, two months after being beat by Roger Federer in the World Tour Finals 6-1, 6-0, is a accomplishment few if anyone could've ever envisioned.

The truth is the 2015 season, even without winning a Grand Slam, was arguably the most successful season of Andy Murray's ten year professional career. A tennis season is forty-eight weeks long of which Grand Slams account for only eight of those weeks. In today's tennis fans too often look at only Grand Slam Championships to establish how successful a players season has been. As a obsessed Andy Murray fan since 2008 I couldn't disagree more, I think she did a sensational job and I am sad to see her leave. Many will write this obituary from the perspective of a failed player-coach relationship.
