According to a post in this thread from some years back, Muirhead-Allwood uses BHR. https://surfacehippy.info/hiptalk/index.php?topic=3946.msg37393#msg37393

Thanks Saf57

It was BHR.

Well... Murray and Lopez beat the number 1 seeds. He looked fine - not limping, no pain at all, even survived a fall with no problems. He looked as if he really enjoyed it.

Obviously different from five sets of singles but a VERY good start.

Remarkable at five months, surely.

Excellent news. In the future maybe we will see the Bryan brothers against Andy and his partner in a match. 2 BHR's on the same court at the highest level. That would be great.

So Murray and Lopez won the tournament. Quite amazing. He is going to play doubles at Eastbourne next week and then Wimbledon.
His return to singles must be on the cards before long. In time for the US?
I wonder how confident his surgeon felt?

I believe Murray stated after the win that he is giving consideration to playing singles at the US Open in late August.

So, Murray has announced he is playing Cincinatti next week SINGLES!

The first recipient of a hip resurfacing to play singles tennis at the top level. Go Andy!

You beat me to it, just saw that on the BBC site.

Go Andy!

Yesterday, Andy Murray won an ATP singles event - The European Open in Antwerp.
He came back in the final from being a set and 3-1 down to beat three time Grand Slam winner Stan Wawrinka.
His BHR surgery was only ten months ago.
Many of us have experienced the joy of returning to an active life, albeit on a more modest scale.
Well done Andy!!

What an awesome result, congrats to Andy! Here's to many more victories.

Absolutely brilliant news, he was my inspiration to have reduced doubts and fears regarding having mine done 10 days' ago! I only intend running long distances rather slowly on mine lol!

That is awesome. And as mentioned in this thread, Andy should set an example for some who are questioning the procedure. If high-level, professional athletes are undergoing this surgery, and returning to play at their top form, there's not much better advertisement than that. I know I have mentioned his name several times when I get a strange look after telling others about my experience with hip resurfacing.

Ten days! Hope it's going well.
One of mine is at very nearly twenty years! Played lots of tennis in that time, though not quite at Andy's level. :)
