Former world number one Andy Murray is confident ahead of next month’s Wimbledon after reaching the quarter-finals of the Rothesay Nottingham Open.
The 36-year-old three-time Grand Slam champion, who went through a hip resurfacing surgery, skipped the clay court season in the past to focus on the grass court events.
The Scot clinched the second-tier Aix-en-Provence Challenger Tour titles last month but suffered early exits in Monte Carlo, Madrid, Rome and Bordeaux before pulling out of the French Open.
"In terms of physically how I have been, the last six to nine months have been really good and that has been the best I have felt since my surgery, that is really positive," Murray said he said after beating Hugo Grenier 6-3 7-5.
"I am getting lots of matches in. I always feel really comfortable on the grass courts, so the next few weeks will be a good test for me."
Murray also said that competing against top-ranked players will allow him to get a better assessment of where his game stands at the moment.
"It is really hard to say if I'm playing my best level overall," Murray added.
"I don't know because I mean absolutely no disrespect to the players I am playing against, I am aware they are very good players, but when you're playing against guys who are in the top 10 in the world they are able to expose certain things in your game a little bit more as well."
Murray also wants to be seeded by the time of the grass court Grand Slam, which runs from July 3-16.
"I am doing my best to give myself the best preparation I can for Wimbledon," he said.
Murray will play Swiss eighth-seed Dominic Stricker later on Friday before returning to the Queen's Club Championships on June 19.
