Andy Murray has chronic injury like me, says Guy Forget
In an interview to LEquipe, the former world No. 4 , current French Open director, commented on announcing his retirement from professional tennis. Forget understands Murrays hard decision: What happened to Andy Murray is exactly what happened to me when I was a player.
I was a world No. 11 but I had a lot of knee pain. I could not deal with it anymore, I decided to undergo surgery. A year after, the doctor told me: Either you re-start, but you will play on just one lag, either you stop now and its ended.
You will never have your knee at 100% back I could not practice for more than an hour and a half a day and I was taking painkillers every day. After a while it was ridiculous, I decided to stop. I imagine Murray has a chronic injury and that he cannot go on anymore.
For a guy like him to do such a thing, its because the medicine cannot do anything for him anymore. His hip may get worse. Others experienced something similar: Thierry Tulasne, Kuerten, Eddie Dibbs, Jimmy Connors, etc. Everybody has hip prosthesis today, which shows once again that the sports is a very severe sport.
