Murray injured again?
Andy Murray was forced to retire this Wednesday in the 2nd round of the Queen's. Leading 4 games to 1 in the first set after 22 minutes of play by Australia's Jordan Thompson, the two-time Wimbledon winner (2013, 2016) was forced to abandon the match.
Apparently suffering from a back injury, the Brit preferred not to take any risks. He left the court to a standing ovation from the spectators, who were well aware that their champion might be playing in the tournament for the last time.
Be that as it may, this is potentially a new blow for Murray after his sprain in Miami at the end of March. All the more so with Wimbledon less than two weeks away.
