Many people are curious as to what motivates Murray to go to such lengths to keep his tennis career alive. According to him, it is a genuine love for the sport and “just to see what he is capable of doing” is what keeps him motivated.

The former world no. 1 opened up about his injuries, “Lots of people said to me, ‘Stop mentioning it, stop talking about metal hip’. And I’m like, ‘Why? It’s relevant,” said Murray as per Eurosport.

“The fact that I’m able to still do this, and compete with the best players in the world with a metal hip, I’m proud that I’m able to do that and I think there’s very few people that would be able to compete (like that). I’ve had lots of people come up to me and say, ‘It’s inspirational that you keep trying, you keep fighting and you keep going’, and I guess that’s something that I would, probably when I finished playing, be remembered for,” Murray added.
