Murray slogs ut direkt – karriären kan vara över
Brittiske tennisstjärnan Andy Murray föll i sin första match i årets Australian Open. Spanske motståndaren Roberto Bautista Agut vann med 6–4, 6–4, 6–7, 6–7, 6–2. Därmed kan trefaldige grand slam-vinnaren Murray ha spelat sin sista match i karriären. Han har tidigare sagt att han har problem med höften efter en tidigare skada.
– Jag tror att det finns en risk att Australian Open är min sista turnering, säger han på en presskonferens.
Nu hyllas Murray för att han trots smärtorna vägrade ge sig i dagens match.
