Tennis world number two, Andy Murray has pulled out of the U.S. Open said to begin On Monday in NewYork, citing a hip injury.
The Scot, who had not played since Wimbledon, said he had tried everything to be fit for the final grand slam of the year.
The three-times grand slam winner, who won the U.S. Open in 2012, has been struggling with the injury for much of the summer.
Murray withdrew from the Rogers Cup in Montreal and then the Western and Southern Open this month in the hope of giving his injury more time ahead of the U.S. Open.
The 30-year-old hinted that he may have to follow the example of Novak Djokovic and Stan Wawrinka in taking off the rest of the year to allow the injury to heal fully.
