Murray ruled out of potential Wimbledon swansong after back surgery

ANDY MURRAY has been ruled out of Wimbledon after undergoing back surgery on a spinal cyst.

The 37-year-old was hoping to make a farewell appearance at SW19 this summer but went under the knife on Saturday after withdrawing from his second-round match against Jordan Thompson at Queen’s on Wednesday.

He now faces some six weeks out, which also puts his participation in the Paris Olympics in serious doubt.
