Murray missar Wimbledon

Den brittiske tennisspelaren Andy Murray missar Wimbledon, skriver han på Facebook. Skotten gjorde nyligen comeback efter ett drygt års skadefrånvaro.

”Jag har gjort stora framsteg på träning och match under de senaste tio dagarna, men efter flera diskussioner med mitt team har vi kommit fram till att femsets-matcher är lite för mycket i det här läget”, skriver han.
