“This guy knows tennis like the back of his hand”: Serena Williams’ ex-coach advises Andy Murray to return to professional tennis

The former coach of former world number one Serena Williams, Rennae Stubbs, believes that Britain’s Andy Murray should return to tennis as a professional. The 37-year-old is considered one of the greatest British players in the history of men’s singles tennis, having won multiple Grand Slam titles.

Murray recently retired from professional tennis after spending most of his career for fitness reasons. The Glasgow-born star ended his career in 2018 due to a hip injury after the Australian Open. However, he miraculously returned to the pitch and continued to play at the highest level.

Stubbs, the former coach of former world number one Serena, recently commented on her podcast that Murray should return to tennis and become a tennis coach. “Andy Murray, he would be a great coach for anyone,” she said. “This guy knows tennis like the back of his hand, he knows emotions. He would be a great coach for anyone, woman or man, because he just has a great tennis spirit.” He was also a very emotional player and I think he would be very sensitive to a player’s difficult times on the tour. “

Murray retired from tennis earlier this year after competing in the Paris Olympics. He initially revealed that his original plan was to retire from singles after competing at Wimbledon, but this plan fell through after he sustained a serious back injury during the Queen’s Championship. He then had to undergo an operation and only had to compete in the doubles with his brother Jamie. Murray was also scheduled to compete in the mixed doubles, but his partner Emma Raducanu had to withdraw due to a wrist injury. The former world number one then took part in the doubles category in Paris with Dan Evans, but the pair lost in the quarter-finals in straight sets 6-2, 6-4 to the American pair of Taylor Fritz and Tommy Paul.
