Andy Murray, the former world no. 1, is slightly making a comeback after he missed most of the 2018’s season due to his hip surgery.
Murray, however, has told media that he has begun to experience some hip pains after coming to Australia. After losing the practice match against Djokovic, he was clearly seen limping and grimacing.
After the match, Murray could be also seen in an animated discussion with his team standing at the side of the court. As for Djokovic, he continued his practice.
The Scottish player played his first match since September on New Year’s Day against James Duckworth at the first round of the Brisbane International, which he won.
He was defeated on the following day in the round two of the tournament by Daniil Medvedev. Now his next match will be at the first round of this year’s first Grand Slam event; the Australian Open.
