Murray a big doubt

-

ANDY Murray’s elbow injury is set to keep him out of the Davis Cup quarter-final against France next week, according to brother Jamie.

The world No 1 was forced to withdraw from the Miami Open after suffering the injury practising for the event and returned to Britain last week where a scan revealed the damage.

Jamie revealed Andy has torn part of his right elbow and his participat­ion in the clash in Rouen, which begins a week on Friday, now appears unlikely.

Jamie said: “It’s some sort of tear in his elbow, so he needs to rest.

“He said he can do everything except serve and he told me that rest was all he had to do. I am not planning that he is going be there against France. If he is, then that is great for the team. We’ll see what happens.”
