Wilander backs Andy Murray for big result at Wimbledon

Mats Wilander believes Andy Murray is still capable of delivering a big result at Wimbledon.

Andy Murray decided to skip Roland Garros to better prepare for the grass season and the upcoming Wimbledon. Many analysts called it a good thing including Wilander who believes Murray is still capable of going deep at a Grand Slam especially Wimbledon. Wilander said:

“He can have a couple of heroic efforts on centre court against lower-ranked players get a little bit of confidence. Obviously the draw is massive. I do not know if he gets drawn against Tsitsipas in the first round or obviously Novak, Rafa, and Roger, but if it's Tsitsipas in the first round that’s a problem."

Wilander further continued:

“But if he gets to win a match gain some confidence and then suddenly thrown into the fourth round against Tsitsipas and we are all fired up and it’s live or die for him, Murray can beat those guys. For sure he can beat Tsitsipas, Zverev, and Medvedev and all those guys. I am not sure about Novak and Rafa because I think they refuse to lose to him these days – unless he has a great serving day then there is a chance."

Wilander concluded by saying:

“I do think it’s very reachable for him to get to the fourth round or the quarters. Maybe he could even beat Roger but Rafa and Novak, [but that] might be slightly out of his league at the moment."
