Triple grand slam champion Andy Murray is set to decide on Monday evening (London time) whether he will make one last singles appearance at Wimbledon.

British tennis legend Andy Murray is set to decide on Monday evening whether he will make one last singles appearance at his beloved Wimbledon.

“ been trying to do everything that I can to try and get ready to start the tournament here. I don’t know if that’s going to be enough,” Murray said on Sunday afternoon. Murray has won only six of his 18 matches this year, but will end his career as a key part of tennis’ golden generation alongside fellow “Big Four” members Novak Djokovic, Rafael Nadal and Roger Federer.

Murray is willing to risk reopening the small wound on his back, which still has stitches in it, to get one last shot at playing on Wimbledon’s grass. He said there was no lingering pain in the area and all that was holding him back at this point was his right leg.
