- Murray practised for an hour but is still struggling
- ‘There are risks and I’m willing to take that to try and play’
Andy Murray says he is willing to take a risk with his body in order to play one more Wimbledon. A week after undergoing back surgery to remove a cyst, the 37-year-old practised on Saturday for around an hour and remains hopeful, if not totally positive, that he will be able to play some part in this year’s Championships.
That he was practising at all offers hope, but the next 48 hours will be crucial. If the 37-year-old is unable to play singles, he may still feel able to play doubles with his brother Jamie Murray for the first time in their careers, the pair having been given a wildcard by organisers. Whatever he decides, he is pushing his body to the limit, as he has done throughout his career.
