TIL Desk Sports/ Former world number one Andy Murray, who underwent a hip-resurfacing surgery, has all but ruled out the possibility of competing in singles at Wimbledon this year and would be looking to play in the doubles.
The two-time champion, who will get a wild card for the Queen’s Club Championships slated to be held in June if fit, told that playing singles would be a step too far given the state of his rehabilitation.
“I would say there is very little chance I would play singles during the grass . Potentially doubles, but I’m not trying to get ready for singles just now,” Murray said.
“The
thing I said before was that, if I wasn’t feeling good, there was more chance
that I would play and then stop after Wimbledon. Whereas if it’s feeling good,
it makes a bit more sense to give it time to make sure that it’s as good as
possible before I try to play singles on it,” he added.
