Fallen tennis star Jelena Dokic has left her tennis academy in Munich for the second time in month, and this time she has revealed she has no intention of returning.
Instead Dokic has decided to return to her former coach Borna Bikic in Croatia, the brother of her boyfriend Tin Bikic.
The 23-year-old former world number four has enjoyed a terrible few years on tour and is currently ranked in the 500s
She had recently moved to Germany to train with Nikola Pilic in a bid to revive her career, but she now says that relationship is over.
“We simply could not agree, that's the whole truth, the offer was anything but fair,” she told Serbian newspaper 24Sata.
“I'm returning to Borna Bikic, my former coach, and I'll try to return to the world's best.”
Pilic as well as Dokic's father Damir, have both blamed the influence of the Bikic brothers for the demise in the Australian-Serbs career, with Damir even going as far as to suggest that the brothers had “kidnapped” her when she left Pilic's camp for the first time last mouth.
Dokic said “that's a topic I will not touch” when asked about her father, but she did admit she was disappointed by Pilic's comments about he Bikic brothers.
“He should stay out of my private life, his statements disappoint me and what does he care anyway?” he said.
