Wimbledon 2024: Murray to miss men’s singles but set to play in doubles

Murray had to retire from his match against Australia’s Jordan Thompson at Queen’s on 19 June because of a back issue.

A few days later the former world number one had a cyst close to his spinal cord removed because it was causing nerve pain in his right leg.

Despite the surgery Murray still held hopes of competing at the All-England Club one final time before bringing his illustrious career to a close.

He returned to the practice courts at Wimbledon at the weekend and wanted to give himself as much time as possible to prove his fitness, only making a final decision hours before he was due on court.

The Scot has struggled with injury this year, rupturing his ankle ligaments at the Miami Open in March.

He was able to return seven weeks later, he has been hampered by a back problem exacerbated by playing on clay.
