Rafael Nadal: 'If Murray is healthy, he will be back at the highest level'
In an interview in Abu Dhabi during the Mubadala World Tennis Championship, Novak Djokovic and Rafael Nadal commented on Andy Murray's comeback to tennis. The Brit will compete in Brisbane next week, which will be just his sixth official tournament in the last 18 months. Djokovic said: 'He is always going to be a number one because he was the number one in the world. Multiple Grand Slam winner, so he has the number one champion's mentality. I have been knowing him since we were 11 years old, I have a ton of respect for him and for his game. And his dedication, his devote to training. He is a very humble guy, very respectful for the game, for his peers. It's gonna be very interesting to see him as a top player, regardless of his rankings.'
Also, the 17-time Grand Slam winner Rafael Nadal commented on Murray's health: 'If he is healthy, I am sure he will be back at the highest level. He is too good,as Novak. But if you have problems, and you have limitations on the movement and this kind of stuff, then it's very difficult to be consistent all the time. I know, because I have a lot of experience', Nadal told CNN.
Nadal and Murray could face each other in Brisbane already in the first round, as the three-time Major winner, currently, 256th ranked, is unseeded.
