Kyle Edmund withdraws from Auckland after right ankle injury sustained on Friday in Brisbane.
Good news is that Edmund has withdrawn from Auckland as a precautionary measure and is expected to be fit for the Australian Open.
Kyle Edmund is expected to be fit for the Australian Open despite pulling out of this week' ASB Classic in Auckland. The 22-year-old British No 2 sustained a right ankle injury during his quarter-final match in Brisbane last Friday and has decided to rest for a few more days as a precautionary measure. After Andy Murray's withdrawal, Edmund is the only British male in the main draw in Melbourne. Cameron Norrie and Liam Broady will try to earn entry this week through qualifying.
