Tim Henman believes that there is "no reason" why Andy Murray can't win Wimbledon this year.

Tim Henman has claimed that there is "no reason" that Andy Murray cannot win Wimbledon this year.

No British player has won the tournament since Fred Perry in 1936, although Murray reached the final last year before winning an Olympic gold medal on the same court later that summer.

Murray was distraught at losing last year's final to Roger Federer, but Henman - who reached the semi-finals at SW19 on numerous occasions - believes that such setbacks will help to make the world number two a better player.

"I always went back a better player and certainly those experiences help you," said the former world number four.

"I was comfortable in my surroundings, I always loved playing at Wimbledon, it was my favourite place and I think Andy is the same, he deals with the expectations on his shoulders very well.

"On the back of 2012, reaching the final of the championships and winning Olympic gold, it is going to bring back good memories, positive thoughts and feelings and there is no reason he cant go a step further this year."

Andy Murray is currently recovering from a back injury that forced him to withdraw from the ongoing French Open.
