CASTLE FEARS MUZZA’S HAD IT

-

FORMER British No.1 Andrew Castle believes Andy Murray may never recapture his old form. Murray, 30, (below) is out with a hip injury but practised with Dominic Thiem at the O2 this weekend and hopes to return for the Australian Open in January. But BBC commentato­r Castle said: “There’s no question he’s not right. I’ve got a metal hip – the hip is bad news. I’m very worried about Andy’s future in the game because of the area that is clearly troubling him. “If we’ve seen the best of him, then he’s done fantastica­lly well and we’ve loved watching his career. But fingers crossed he will be able to come back, I really hope he can.” But Roger Federer, who faced the Scot in a charity match in Glasgow last week, said: “I was actually happy how he was playing. He still has a lot of time before Australia comes around. I thought he was actually pretty good. I didn’t expect him to be this good yet.”
