Murray ‘not giving up’ on Wimbledon following successful surgery
Andy Murray, June 25, 2024

ANDY MURRAY remains hopeful of playing at Wimbledon but admitted today it is unlikely to be in singles.

The 37-year-old, who confirmed he is planning for the Olympics in Paris to be the final event of his career, had surgery on a spinal cyst on Saturday after experiencing weakness in his right leg during a second-round match against Jordan Thompson at Queen’s Club.

Murray called it a day after only five games and revealed he had no choice but to go under the knife.
