It is difficult to take the eyes off Juan Martin del Potro when he is playing tennis. Known for his powerful forehands, the Argentine has enthralled the tennis fans over the years. Despite his injury struggles, the 33-year-old has had an illustrious career.

His most memorable victory came at the US Open in 2009. He defeated the Swiss maestro, Roger Federer, in the summit clash of that tournament to win his maiden Grand Slam title. It was a topsy-turvy match, going right down to the wire. Further, he has an Olympic silver and a bronze medal to his credit.

Last month, the Argentine made a brief comeback to tennis after being out for over two and a half years. However, his return was short-lived as he lost in the opening round to fellow countryman Federico Delbonis in the Argentina Open tennis tournament. Subsequently, he announced that he will undergo another knee surgery. Recently, he talked about his injury hell and wanting to play again.

Juan Martin del Potro to return to tennis again?

The former World Number 3 opened up about his passion to play tennis. He said, “I don’t close that window so that a miracle can happen, as it has happened with Murray. Tennis is my passion.” On coming back from injuries, he said, “When we came back from winning the Davis Cup I said: ‘Here’s the cup, now I’m going to sleep peacefully’. But to get there, I had to go through a path of suffering and ugly things.”

Moreover, he talked about his comeback at the Argentina Open last month and said, “I felt it was time to say that I was playing. It was time to put an end to this suffering and this nightmare that I have been living since the day I had the operation.”

Talking about his return to tennis anytime soon, he added, “I have to heal my leg. How can I not go out for a bike ride with my son? Or to play tennis if he wants one day? I would like to be an active father.” (Translated using Google Translate)
