Andy Murray is undecided about whether to play Wimbledon and says doubles is likelier than singles

Associated Press  

WIMBLEDON, England — Two-time Wimbledon champion Andy Murray still had not decided as of Thursday whether he will be able to compete at the grass-court Grand Slam tournament that begins next week and he is likelier to enter doubles than singles if he can play at all after recent surgery to remove a cyst on his spinal cord. I would say it’s probably more likely that I’m not able to play singles right now.” Murray had been intending to finish his career by playing at Wimbledon and then the Paris Olympics, where the tennis competition at Roland Garros starts July 27. So I can’t say for sure that if I wasn’t able to play at Wimbledon, and I didn’t recover in time to play at the Olympics, that I wouldn’t consider trying to play another tournament somewhere,” he said Thursday. “But if I’m able to play at Wimbledon and if I’m able to play at the Olympics, that’s most likely going to be it.” And as of now, he does not plan to enter the U.S. Open, which begins in late August.
