Andy Murray to pull out of French Open 2020?

Murray's former coach Alex Corretja has advised that the former should miss French Open this year to stand a better chance at performing in the Wimbledon.

"He should use the clay-court season to get enough matches to be ready for grass. Because if he skips the clay-court season, there is going to be such a long gap before the grass," he said, reports Telegraph.

Speaking further on the issue, Corretja felt that Murray should prioritize playing in the Wimbledon, which is the most prestigious Grand Slam of all, followed by the greatest sporting event, the Tokyo Olympics.

"He needs to go thinking that those matches are the best preparation. I could have to be ready for Wimbledon, and that's the only thing he needs to know," he concluded.

It was in January 2019 when Murray reportedly underwent hip surgery.

Prior to the same, Murray had said that the risk factor in the surgery was extremely high, as he could have to prematurely retire from the sport.

However, following successful surgery, he made comeback to the sport the very year, prior to the Wimbledon, as he won the European Open, beating Stan Wawrinka.

Here are some records held by Murray:

He has won the most Queen's Club Championships titles (5).

He has played two consecutive Olympic finals and won gold in both at different surfaces (grass and hard).

He has won Grand Slam, World Tour Finals, Olympics and Masters titles in the same year (2016).

He finished as the runner-up most times in the Australian Open (5).
