WIMBLEDON is well underway and we’re set for a bumper couple of weeks of action at SW19.
Andy Murray won’t play in singles action and he’s also been knocked out of the men’s doubles with his brother Jamie.
He will, however, play alongside Emma Raducanu in a dream team for the mixed.
Emma Raducanu is through to the third round and will play Maria Sakkari.
Hijikata on Murray
Rinky Hijikata said it was an “absolute honour” to play against Andy Murray at Centre Court.
Obviously it’s a very special for us to come out here and play together.
Today was all about Andy and the great champion he is.
It was an absolute honour to step on the court with him before he could finish up playing.

Murray would ‘love to keep playing’
Andy Murray admitted he would “love” to play forever but injuries have taken a toll.
It is hard because I would love to keep playing but I can’t.
Physically it’s just too tough now. All of the injuries have added up and like I said they haven’t been insignificant.
I want to play forever. I love this sport. It’s given me so much, taught me loads of lessons over the years that I can use for the rest of my life. I don’t want to stop so it is hard.
