Tennis legend Tim Henman has said that Andy Murray might need six months to return to peak form after his back surgery, and he could become a better player than ever.

Murray will play his first tournament since September here at this week's Qatar ExxonMobil Open, the Independent reports.

Murray had an operation on a long-standing lower-back problem three months ago and has been steadily rebuilding his fitness since then.

He played two exhibition matches in Abu Dhabi last week.
