"Old habits die hard" says Paul Annacone explaining what Murray needs to do next

Former tennis player and coach Paul Annacone talked to the Tennis Channel about Andy Murray and what he needs to do next.

A few days ago, Andy Murray lost another match in 2022 and this one came against Felix Auger-Aliassime who was in control of that match from start to finish. The Canadian never let Murray think about a possible comeback and Paul Annacone thinks Murray must make some changes in order to be more competitive with the younger players.

He said:

"The biggest thing is, old habits die hard. We know that Andy Murray likes to be reactive, he likes to be a counter-puncher and rely on those tremendous defensive skills, but it's not going to cut it anymore."

Annacone also explained that Murray will probably do what is necessary and find a way to be more competitive but it remains to be seen whether that will be enough:

"People are too athletic, there is too much power. He is going to have to find a way. And he can, because he has a big serve and he has one of the best two-handers out there."

Murray will return to the courts next week in Doha.
