Murray ruptures ankle ligaments!

It looked as though Andy Murray was leaving Miami on a positive note on Sunday evening. Despite his defeat by Machac, the former world No. 1 was quite satisfied with his tournament. We were also reassured after what we had thought was a simple scare, when the Briton collapsed in pain after twisting his ankle.

He was eventually able to resume the match and came very close to winning. More fear than harm, we thought at the time. But it was not to be. Murray revealed on his Instagram account that he had suffered a total rupture of the anterior talofibular ligament (ATFL) and a near-total rupture of the calcaneofibular ligament (CFL).

Andy Murray: "Yesterday, towards the end of my match in Miami (against Machac), I suffered a complete rupture of the anterior talofibular ligament (ATFL) and an almost complete rupture of the calcaneofibular ligament (CFL). I'll consult an ankle specialist on my return to determine the next steps. Needless to say, it's a hard blow to take and I'll be out for a long time. But I'll be back with a hip and no ankle ligament when the time comes 😉"

Sir Andy should be felicitated for playing through injuries and then sitting on the sidelines and still coming back🫡

Poor Andy.... Probably time to give that body a rest and start enjoying more time with the family. He has done his country proud throughout his career and overcome some huge obstacles

To be honest he could treat this as a sabbatical and just plan to come back next year again for his final year. I have a feeling he will not accept leaving it like this.

Andy will likely be back. The guy has been playing with a fake hip for some time now.

Those are serious and potentially very painful injuries. I was disappointed at the end of the match the way he was carrying on. Good lesson in not rushing to judgement. Clearly he was in tremendous pain and being the warrior he is, just couldn't bring his self to say the words, "I can't play!" and retire the match.

Alcaraz far too strong for Monfils!

why did tennis tonic void predictions on the match between Chwalinska and Huergo at the Quito tournament? The match was played to completion and on time. If TT feels the match is one sided, and of course it was, then don't put it up for prediction. This is getting irritating.

The finals are here, and we scramble for the best finish. I've been chasing "King" all year and I was able to shrink the spread a little. Skelp is also closing the gap.

Seasons best to all the regulars in our league.

Will you all be back in the new year.?

Steffi Graf completed a Golden Slam (not just a career Grand Slam) when she was 19. She is the only person to accomplish that, winning the four majors plus Olympic gold the same calendar year.

What a finish this is.. I believe King has used his boost for today. Skelp is closing strong. Two wins and he claims 1st if I lose my last prediction.
