Andy Murray says that he plans to add to his Grand Slam collection in 2014 but only after returning to full health.

Andy Murray has expressed his desire to add to his Grand Slam collection but only after returning to full fitness.

The Scot's season came to a premature end in 2013 after he required back surgery, but did manage to add the Wimbledon title to his 2012 US Open success last year.

"I want to be healthy," Murray told Sky Sports News. "If someone said to me that I could get to be No 1 in the world for one week or win another grand slam I would rather win another grand slam.

"I want to be 100% fit and be able to play all of the shots I need to, to compete at the top of the game. It was getting to a stage where I was struggling to do that on a consistent basis because I was playing in pain for a while. I want to get healthy first then I will see where my game is at and make some goals. But right now the goal is to get healthy.

"Every single player that plays tennis - or any sport - would like to be number one in the world but my goal is to win grand slams, simple as that. I don't think the rankings always reflect who the best player is. Often they do but it isn't always the case and for years grand slams is what I have been judged on. If someone said to me that I could get to be No 1 in the world for one week or win another grand slam I would rather win another grand slam."

Murray is currently ranked fourth in the world.
