Summary
Andy Murray has taken the plunge and gone under the knife after his frustrated attempts to come back from a hip injury.
David Law, deserted by an ill Catherine Whitaker, gives his verdict on whether Murray has made the right call, and what happens next. He is also joined by Telegraph Tennis Correspondent Simon Briggs to talk about Murray and other main stories ahead of the Australian, and leading coach Nigel Sears to run through the long list of players on the WTA Tour competing for major honours this year.
The Tennis Podcast is produced weekly, in association with Telegraph Sport and Eurosport, and daily at the Grand Slam tournaments.
Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.
