Murray on entry list for Queen's in June as fitness battle continues

Andy Murray hopes to be fit to play at Queen’s Club this summer, with the former world No.1 on the entry list for the Cinch Championships along with fellow British players Jack Draper, Cameron Norrie and Dan Evans.

Murray – who has won the singles title five times at the tournament – ruptured ankle ligaments at last month’s Miami Open.

He is yet to estimate when he will be ready to return to court.

Meanwhile, Draper will be back at Queen’s in June after missing last year’s competition because of a shoulder injury which ruled him out of the entire British grass-court season.

It has been a good year so far for Draper, who has reached a career-high ranking of world No.37.

Reigning champion Carlos Alcaraz will return to the Queen’s grass, along with other top-25 players including Holger Rune, Taylor Fritz and Frances Tiafoe.

Joe Salisbury and Neal Skupski lead Britain’s interest in the doubles, while wheelchair players Alfie Hewett and Gordon Reid will go head-to-head in an exhibition match.

The action at Queen’s takes place from 15-23 June.
