Ivanisevic believes Murray has ‘no chance’ of winning another Grand Slam

Goran Ivanisevic has given his thoughts on whether he believes Andy Murray can return to the top.

Ivanisevic said that for him Murray has no chance of winning another Grand Slam but that he can cause problems when he’s healthy.

He added that as a result, he could still be up there sometime soon again.

“A Slam? No chance. But he can make some surprises, he can go far but to win I don’t think that he can survive seven matches – best-of-five,” Ivanisevic told reporters ahead of beginning his stint at the Champions Tennis.

“It’s only about health – if he’s healthy and the hip is okay I don’t think that anyone wants to play against Andy next year. He’s a great competitor and when he steps on the court, he wants to win. He’s not good for the opponents.

“It’s going to be good. I don’t know what ranking, it’s tough to say no, but if he’s healthy he can be up there.”
