LONDON, July 28: Andy Murray has pulled out of next week's Legg Mason Tennis classic in Washington to allow his wrist injury more time to recover. The 20-year-old British No 1 has been out of action since injuring his wrist in May and was forced to miss the French Open and Wimbledon.

In a statement, Murray said on Saturday: “Andy won't play any part in the Legg Mason Tennis Classic this coming week.”

The Scot has now set his sights on returning in Montreal early next month.—AFP
