British tennis star Laura Robson has undergone a second hip operation.

The 25-year-old first went under the knife in June 2018 and returned to action in February but has not played since retiring during a match in Sunderland in April.

Robson posted on Instagram: "One more op for luck... After months of struggling through all the rehab and treatments available, a decision was made this week to have another hip surgery & try fix the pain for good.

"Very much hope to be back on court soon but in the meantime I can't wait to walk my dog without limping. Small victories."
