MURRAY IS OUT UNTIL 2018

-

ANDY MURRAY is unlikely to play again this season due to the hip injury that forced him to miss the US Open.

He has ruled himself out of the forthcomin­g tournament­s in Beijing and Shanghai and also expects to sit out the season-ending events in Vienna and Paris.

“Having consulted with leading hip specialist­s over the last week, along with my own team, we have decided this is the best decision for my long-term future,” said the Scot.

“Although this has been a frustratin­g year on court, I’m confident after this extended period of rest and rehabilita­tion I will be able to reach my best level again and be competing for Grand Slam titles next season.”

But he still intends to play Roger Federer in an exhibition match for charity in Glasgow in November.
