In an interview to Express the tennis presenter commented on physical condition ahead of the Australian Open. The British player said, in a press conference on Friday, that this years Australian Open or likely Wimbledon will be his last tournaments in his career.
I know Murray was comfortably beaten in a practice match he had with Djokovic, Croft recognized. And that wouldnt have done is confidence any good. But hes such a great competitor I have no doubt hell go out there and give it his all.
He loves the Australian Open. Hes got a great record here being in the final five times. Hell will have tremendous support, hes very popular with the Aussie crowds. But it is a really tough draw to start things off.
About the upcoming match between Murray and Roberto Bautista Agut, Croft added: Murray ordinarily gets the better of him, I dont think hes ever lost to him. But Bautista Agut will be coming into the event with a massive amount of confidence having played so well in Doha, beating Djokovic.
Ive always liked the way he plays, hes unbelievably quick across the court, someone who could have been a professional footballer, but he chose tennis instead, but hes got tremendous footwork. He does everything pretty well, a very neat and tidy player.
