Andy Murray ready for Wimbledon but retirement date on his mind

Andy Murray says he has a period in mind for when he would like to end his professional career, a decision he began to think about in his long, gruelling series of matches during his run at the Australian Open in January.

“After the matches I was having, it was like, this maybe isn’t that good for me, like, long term to be playing those sorts of matches,” said Murray. “Yeah, I could keep doing that probably, I don’t know, until the hip finishes. I don’t really want to do that. I want to finish on my terms when I’m fit and healthy and still competing at a good level. I would like to finish in that way rather than it being, like, an injury. I know you can’t control that entirely.
