Andy Murray will not play at Queen’s against Lorenzo Sonego this week, his usual warmup for Wimbledon after scans showed he has an abdominal strain after his run at Weissenhof Stuttgart.

Murray levelled up with Matteo Berrettini before injury problems set in and the Italian took the title with the former World No.1 complaining about issues with his ab.

Some expected it was actually an issue with his hip but it has now been confirmed to the contrary. He is still hopeful for Wimbledon though and could play an exhibition at Hurlingham Club next week according to prominent tennis journalist, Stuart Fraser.

“After having a scan this afternoon, an abdominal injury means I won’t be fit to compete at Queen’s this year. The tournament means a lot to me, and it’s disappointing not to compete, especially after playing some good matches on the grass already,” he said.
