Men’s Tennis Murray set to return from injury at Geneva Open

ANDY MURRAY is set to make his comeback from injury this month at the Geneva Open, it was revealed today.

The 36-year-old, who is expected to retire at some point this season, has been sidelined since late March after damaging ankle ligaments in a third-round match against Tomas Machac at the Miami Open.

Murray opted not to have surgery but it had been feared the former world number one might not be able to have his Wimbledon swansong.

However, it was announced today that Murray has been given a wild card for the ATP tournament on clay in Geneva beginning on May 18, indicating he is planning on playing in the French Open the following week.

The Scot has not played at Roland Garros since 2020, which was his only appearance since his hip problems began three years previously.

But Murray is keen to have a last hurrah at the biggest events, including another tilt at an Olympic medal on the Parisian clay this summer.
