Wimbledon LIVE: Emma Raducanu wins after match chaos as Djokovic surprises Alcaraz | Tennis | Sport


Andy Murray will make a final decision on his Wimbledon participation this evening.

The two-time champion is scheduled to play on Tuesday but is not fully fit following surgery on a spinal cyst last week.

Murray is due to have one final practice set on Monday before making a decision on his ability to play at what is likely to be his final Wimbledon.

β€œThe opportunity to play here again for the last time, that’s kind of it. This is a place that’s obviously been really good to me over the years,” the 37-year-old said.

β€œI guess the last few years you’ve had Serena finished playing, Roger finished playing, and Rafa obviously has spoken a lot recently about the struggles he’s gone through. Everyone has their idea of how they want to finish their career, how they would want it to go.

β€œMy idea would have seen that happening probably at Wimbledon. Obviously I have the Olympics coming up. But I would love the opportunity to play here one more time. That’s what I’m looking to get out of it.

β€œI’m hoping for, when it comes to the end, maybe a bit of closure. I just want the opportunity to play one more time out there hopefully on Centre Court and feel that buzz. Whether afterwards I feel it was the right thing to do or not, I don’t know. But right now I feel like I want that opportunity.”
