Judy Murray has warned the world to stop with talk of retirement for son Andy a decade after he lifted a rare Wimbledon title.
The first British man in 77 years to claim the honour is back at the All England club for next week’s start, with mainly local pundits wondering when the end will come for the 36-year-old.
Murray is back on decent form and ranked 39th after more than half a decade recovering from the effects of hip surgeries which threatened to end his career.
He starts in the first round against fellow Brit Ryan Peniston.
“Let’s stop talking about when he’s going to retire,” tennis coach and mum Judy said.
“When he had the hip injury in 2017, he was No. 1 in the world, he was playing the best tennis of his life.
“He was very unfortunate because it took him a long time to find the right way to treat the injury and recover from it. Rehabilitating took a long time.
“The fact that he continues to play shows his passion for the game, his love of competition,” she told The National.
The coach and Scottish tennis evangelist added: “Let’s let him play as long as he wants and stop talking about when he’s going to retire.
“Let him do what he knows how to do best, ”Judy says bluntly in an interesting interview with The National .
“When you’re a British player and it’s your local Slam, most of the country is watching and thinks the whole tennis world revolves around Wimbledon.”
