Andy Murray, the 37-year-old tennis player, has announced that he will undergo surgery on his back on Saturday, just a week and a half before the Wimbledon tournament. This news comes after he was forced to withdraw from a match at Queen’s Club earlier this week due to a sore back.
Murray’s camp confirmed the surgery, stating that they will provide further updates on his condition after the procedure has taken place. The decision to undergo surgery comes after Murray experienced a nerve issue that caused him to lose coordination, control, and strength in his right leg during a match at Queen’s Club.
Leading sports injury specialists have expressed doubts about Murray’s ability to compete at Wimbledon following the surgery. Prof Arun Ranganathan, a trauma and orthopaedic spine surgeon, believes that Murray may have slipped a disc, which could be causing the nerve compression that led to his leg weakness.
Murray’s history of back injuries, including a surgery in 2013, has raised concerns about his ability to continue playing professional tennis. Despite his determination to play at Wimbledon, the uncertainty surrounding his condition and recovery may impact his performance in the upcoming tournament.
The announcement of Murray’s surgery has cast a shadow over his planned farewell at the All England Club, with many speculating about his future in tennis. As he prepares for the surgery, fans and fellow players alike are hoping for a successful recovery that will allow him to continue his career in the sport.
