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.”
