Three-time Grand Slam-winning tennis player Andy Murray is playing in this year's Winston-Salem Open.
The former world number one player is entering the playing field as a wild card in the tournament. In addition to his many professional winnings, Andy Murray is also a two-time Olympic gold medalist.
This will be his first time playing in Winston-Salem. At a press conference, he spoke highly of the courts and facilities at the Winston-Salem Open, based on what he's heard from other players.
The upcoming match comes after a period of relative inactivity. The 32-year old tennis star underwent his second hip surgery earlier this year. That caused him to miss five months of play.
The 2019 Winston-Salem Open will run from August 17 through August 24 at the Wake Forest Tennis Complex.
