This shouldn't be a match at all. Kevin Kim pulled out of Dallas at one set all in his first match complaining of a hurt hand. Even 100%, Murray rolls in this one. Unless Kim was full of you know what and wasn't injured, this match will be done in less than an hour.

Ah pity, but the wording of peparing for the clay season makes it sound not really serious, though I would think it must cast more doubt on his Davis Cup participation in France.

I was going to say that the way Novak had been playing Andy still stood a good chance of extending his ranking points lead. I now read from the BBC link that Novak has his own elbow problem and may yet withdraw, which would result in Andy going clear by over 4,000 points.

As said he has a mountain of points to defend later on in the year, but at least in Novak's good 2016 half Andy has so far actually outscored him. OK, so have rather an increasing host of players, most notably Fed stretching ahead in the Race.

Wasn't he practising with the fearhand during the week ? Could explain a lot

TMH · Futures qualifying

Not been a great start to his #1 defence really has it. Federer and co. are going to have a massive lead over him.

Andy Murray expected to fly home from Miami later for further scans on his right elbow. Not feeling 100% either, so rest on the agenda

Hope it's OK, Andy.

Spectator · All-time great

Apparently it's not wholly. Hoping he makes a full and relatively speedy recovery.

Bob in Spain · Tennis legend

Latest reports are that he has a tear in the elbow and that he will probably miss DC because of the injury.

Vandenburg · Futures level

Insiders over at MTF seem to think the injury is quite serious, and he could be out for up to 6 weeks?
