Andy Murray has had a difficult season

Andy Murray has found the going tough this season. With a win-loss record of 23-15, he is currently ranked No. 43 in the world.

Murray started the season well by making the final at the Sydney International, before losing to Aslan Karatsev in straight sets. He then lost early at the Australian Open and his poor form continued throughout the hardcourt season and into the clay season.

The former World No. 1 started the grass season well at home, reaching the semifinals at Surbiton before going one step better at Stuttgart. Unfortunately, he was knocked out early at Wimbledon. Murray didn't fare too well during the US Open swing either, losing in the third round at the year's final Major.

However, with the re-appointment of Ivan Lendl as his coach, Murray will have his sights set on regaining his best form as he aims for a strong finish to the season.

At the age of 35, Murray has entered the back end of his career. The Scotsman has won three Majors (US Open - 2012 and Wimbledon - 2013 and 2016) and spent a total of 41 weeks as World No. 1.
