Andy Murray aiming for one more Wimbledon triumph – ‘I do believe that that’s a possibility’
Andy Murray believes that he could yet challenge for another Wimbledon title.
The former world No. 1 has two Wimbledon titles to his name, winning the first in 2013 and the second three years later.
However, at 35 he is currently ranked No. 52 and has not threatened winning a Grand Slam since major hip surgery in 2018, with hip problems affecting him in the preceding years.

The veteran has lost his last four matches, but has signed up for an event in Bordeaux as well as the Madrid Open in order to take perhaps his last tilt at Roland-Garros in Paris.
He told the press: “I would like to play, just purely because I don’t know if I’ll get another opportunity to play again.
“Whilst I feel fit and healthy, I would like to give it a go.”
He then revealed that he believes a win at Wimbledon is not impossible, even if it sounds unlikely.
He continued: “I also have ambitions of, you know, competing for Wimbledon titles and that sort of stuff, and I know that sitting here today that probably doesn’t sound realistic, but I do believe that that’s a possibility. I obviously want to do the right thing there.
“The experiences I have had when I have won Wimbledon has been in 2013 when I didn’t play the French Open and won, and 2016 I had my best French Open and won Wimbledon. It didn’t have an impact necessarily.
“It’s impossible to say what the right thing to do is, but obviously it’s a Grand Slam. I would like the opportunity to play.”
