[1/2] Tennis - Davis Cup - Finals - Britain v Switzerland - AO Arena, Manchester, Britain - September 15, 2023 Britain's Andy Murray celebrates winning his match against Switzerland's Leandro Riedi Action Images via Reuters/Jason Cairnduff/ File photo Acquire Licensing RightsNov 18 (Reuters) - Former world number one Andy Murray has withdrawn from Britain's Davis Cup squad ahead of the finals next week due to a shoulder injury, the Briton said on Saturday, effectively ending his season. Murray guided Britain to the finals after missing his grandmother's funeral to help his team beat Switzerland in September. "I've picked up a minor shoulder injury, which means I won't be able to take part in the Davis Cup," Murray said in a statement. "I'm gutted not to be a part of the squad, but my focus is now on rehab and getting ready for the new season." Murray, 36, split with long-time coach Ivan Lendl for a third time earlier this month.

Abdominal strain forces Murray out of Cincinnati
  + stars: | 2023-08-15 | by ( ) www.reuters.com   time to read: +1 min
Aug 15 (Reuters) - Andy Murray pulled out of the Cincinnati Open late on Monday as the Briton continues to recover from an abdominal strain in a bid to compete in the U.S. Open that begins later this month. Murray, 36, withdrew from last week's Canadian Open before his round of 16 clash with eventual champion Jannik Sinner due to the issue he picked up after spending nearly five hours on court in wins over Lorenzo Sonego and Max Purcell. The three-times Grand Slam champion and former world number one travelled to Cincinnati where he hoped to be fit in time to face Russian Karen Khachanov but he will now be replaced by a lucky loser, men's tennis governing body ATP said. Murray is currently number 36 in the world - his highest ranking since hip resurfacing surgery in 2019 - and was named in Britain's Davis Cup team for their Finals group stage ties that will take place after the Aug. 28-Sept. 10 U.S. Open.
