Technically for Andy Murray, it could be the final time he plays Wimbledon this year as he reaches the twilight of his playing career.
But he certainly won't ride into the sunset after this year's edition he admits.
While saying he never knows, he wants to play a bit longer despite admitting that he wouldn't return if another hip injury or another big operation was needed.
In form in the lead-up to Wimbledon, he only lost to Alex de Minaur at Queen's winning Surbiton and Nottingham and despite not getting a seeding spot at Wimbledon, he will head there with optimism.

"I hope not, but you never know. It's why athletes need to make the most of it while they're still able to because if I was to have another big injury or if something happened to the metal hip that would be me finished. I wouldn't try to come back from another operation or major surgery again so I want to keep playing a bit longer.
But despite it not being this year, Murray has an idea of when he will bow out from the sport admitting it won't last forever.
"I know it's not going to be going on forever but I have an idea of when I would like to finish and it's not this year's Wimbledon."

- Players need to STOP TRYING TO JUSTIFY THEIR INCLUSION! They are not ambassadors for women in Saudi Arabia, they are not politicians, and they will never make a difference for females in that 'culture'. This little tennis "tournament" changes nothing. Players were lured by the money, opted to participate, and should just keep their predictable excuses and Women's Freedom Fairy Tales to themselves. Period. Like most things in Life -- one cannot make an argument relating to the Saudi Regime and, at the same time, triple your bank account with their "gifts".
