Murray back on tennis court for first time since back surgery

London – Wimbledon Champion Andy Murray has posted a picture showing him practicing on a tennis court in Miami, raising hopes that he is on the road to recovery after back surgery.

According to the Guardian, the world No 4 put the photograph on his Facebook page together with a caption, which expressed his delight to be hitting for the first time since September’s operation.

Murray wrote that the sun was shining; he was back on the courts, adding that it was a good day.

Murray has not played since losing in the quarterfinals of the US Open to Stanislas Wawrinka in early September, the report said.

He has said he will enter January’s Australian Open only if he feels fit enough to win it, according to the report.
