I read, after the Wimbledon tribute, Andy Murray would play his last ever match here. But, the ITF have other plans and want him to finish his career in Manchester.

Andy not sure if he will be playing in singles according to article on BBC (posted in newspaper thread).


Murray said his back issue will likely prevent him from entering the singles in Paris - a decision which must be made before Thursday's draw - but he and Evans are capable of doing "very well" in the doubles.

"Me and Dan made the commitment to each other, that is what we will prioritise," he added.

"That gives the team and us the best opportunity to get a medal.

"My back is still not perfect. I didn't feel great in the build-up to Wimbledon and during it. I feel better here."

Evans will still play in the men's singles, along with Cameron Norrie and Jack Draper, while Team GB will also be represented in the doubles by Neal Skupski and Joe Salisbury.
