His wish to play at the Paris Olympics apparently confirmed by this story on the Beeb's site.

 According to the Daily Mail, he also said: which puts a bit more detail on it and aligns with Olympics or US Open being his swansong

Afterwards, Murray dropped another retirement hint, saying: 'I'm likely not going to play past this summer. 

'I get asked about it after every single match that I play, every single tournament that I play. I'm bored of the question, to be honest.'

Andy said more, that he would like to play the French one last time.

Maybe Olympics will be it...

Andy, it seems to me that you are the main spark for the questioning with various unsolicited comments

 That's a shame, had hopes Jamie and Michael would see it through to the back end of the event after last weeks title in Doha.

Over to IW, then.

Shame for Luke, they were 9th alts so not sure if hes just knocking around whilst his partner picks up wildcards; must be annoying.

 Luke & Mansouri have looked very good as a partnership so hopefully they plan to continue to play together going forward.

If Mansouri can't get in with Luke and gets other opportunities zi just wish him the best for improving his ranking and thus their potential combined ranking.

 Agreed - I think Manaouri got the opportunity and why not take it if he and Luke would not have got it.  But Luke must be a little frustrated if hes just there practicing and hoping! 

Except that he's in the Lille Challenger this week, in a scratch pairing with the American, George Goldhoff, & a bum draw against the top seeds, Frantzen & Jebens.  hmm   

 Next week, in Lugano Challenger, Goldhoff is playing with Mansouri in the doubles, Luke isnt playing anywhere as far as I can see.

All seems a bit strange, Luke and Mansouri would have got into this draw comfortably as a pair. Maybe they are going separate ways? Or am I missing some future entry that I cant see?

 Id say unsportsmanlike to play himself as then he would be certain to win ! (and lose of course)

 Said to have sworn in Russian to a linesman on Bublik's matchpoint.

Rublev had his points and prize money restored after an appeal.

 Nevertheless I bet he'll think twice before screaming in a line judge's face in future.
