Andy Murray unsure of French Open participation despite signing up for Monte Carlo Masters

Andy Murray, the former world No.1 tennis player, has outlined his plans for a busy European clay court season, including a potential return to the French Open. The 35-year-old has battled repeated injury problems in recent years, but he is determined to make a comeback at one of the sport’s most prestigious events.

Murray is a four-time semi-finalist and was the runner-up in 2016 at the Grand Slam in Paris. However, he has only competed at the French Open once since making the semi-finals in 2017, where he was eliminated in the first round in 2020. Despite this setback, Murray remains determined to make a comeback at the French Open.

The Scottish tennis star is set to kick off his European clay court season against Alex De Minaur in the opening round of the Monte Carlo Masters on Monday. He has also confirmed his participation in the Madrid and Rome tournaments. Depending on how his body feels and how he performs, Murray will decide whether to compete in the French Open or not.

Speaking to Eurosport, Murray said, “If I feel like I can have a good run there, I would like to play. I’ve not really played much there since 2017, and I don’t know how many more chances I’ll get to play there. Whilst I’m feeling good, I would love to do it again.”
