Andy Murray has confirmed he will be returning to singles tennis, making his comeback at the Cincinnati at Western & Southern Open next week.

The former world number one was worried he might have to retire, after a struggling with a hip injury.

Murray had an operation earlier this year to help fix his hip, and spoke to C麻豆社's Nikki Lily about how his recovery affected his mental health.

After months of recovery Andy returned to tennis, playing doubles at the Queen Club tournament.

He even teamed up with tennis legend Serena Williams at Wimbledon.
