- Wilander suggested Murray wrong to take wildcard spots
- Courier: ‘Andy has every right to take wildcards’
When Mats Wilander suggested Andy Murray was nearing the end of his career after the former world No 1 equalled the heaviest loss of his grand slam career, he cannot have imagined the row he was creating. Wilander’s old friend, Jim Courier, is the latest to defend the 33-year-old Scot and his replacement hip.
On day two of the French Open – when Rafael Nadal began the defence of his title with a routine win over the unseeded Egor Gerasimov and Britain’s Liam Broady went down in flames and expletives in four sets against the accomplished Czech Jiri Vesely – talk lingered about Murray’s future.
