Andy Murray has revealed the desire for his eldest daughter Sophia to see him play tennis is motivating him to make a return to the game.
Murray underwent surgery to resolve a troublesome hip injury yesterday morning and is hoping to return to competitive tennis for the 2018 grass-court season.
The 30-year-old has not played competitively since Wimbledon last summer and last week he withdrew from this month&rsquo;s Australian Open.
There were doubts over his future but the early prognosis after surgery is good and Murray is determined to give his daughter, who turns two next month, the chance to see him play.
"One of the things that I would like to do is play until my eldest daughter is able to watch me and have a small understanding of what it is I&rsquo;ve done for my living," Murray told a number of national newspapers. "That&rsquo;s something I really wanted to do. That&rsquo;s one of the things that motivated me to keep playing.
"That would be cool if she can come along and watch me hit some balls or practise, just to see what it is I do.
"I like watching and seeing a lot of the other kids when they are on the tour with their parents and get to do a bit of travelling with them when they are at an age when they actually understand a little bit more about what it is that they&rsquo;re doing."
