Andy Murray played his 1,001st career match in the second round against Jordan Thompson at Queen’s, but was forced to retire due to injury. The three-time Grand Slam champion decided to end the match when he was trailing 4-1 in the first set against Thompson. Despite the setback at Queen’s, Murray remains hopeful that he will be able to compete in Wimbledon.
Murray is now scheduled to undergo a back procedure on Saturday, just nine days before Wimbledon begins on 1 July. His brother, Jamie Murray, shared that Andy saw a specialist to determine the next steps in his recovery. In addition to Murray, fellow Briton Dan Evans also faced injury troubles at Queen’s, retiring with a knee injury during his match against Brandon Nakashima.
Murray had previously undergone a hip resurfacing operation in 2019 and faced setbacks with ankle ligaments and a recurring back problem leading up to Wimbledon. With the Olympics also beginning next month, Murray is in a race against time to recover for the upcoming major tournaments.
