There is no clear timescale for Andy Murray’s return after Britain’s former world number one ruptured ankle ligaments earlier in March.<\/b><\/p>\n

The 36-year-old sustained the injury in his Miami Open third-round defeat.<\/p>\n

A spokesperson said Murray will miss April’s clay-court Monte Carlo Masters and BMW Open in Munich following a consultation with medical experts.<\/p>\n

The three-time Grand Slam champion has previously said he does not plan to “play much past this summer”.<\/a><\/p>\n

Murray played on to complete the match against Machac, losing 5-7 7-5 7-6 (7-5), before revealing the extent of the injury on Monday.<\/a><\/p>\n

The Scot said he had suffered a full rupture of his anterior talofibular ligament and near full-thickness rupture of his calcaneofibular ligament.<\/p>\n

“At this stage, it is still not clear how long Andy will be out of action, and he is continuing to review options with his medical team,” a statement from Murray’s management team read.<\/p>\n

“Obviously this is very disappointing news for Andy and he has reiterated his desire to get back on court as soon as possible.”<\/p>\n

Murray, who turns 37 in May, said earlier this year that he wants compete at another Olympic Games before he retires.<\/p>\n

The two-time Olympic champion has also indicated he wants to make one final appearance at the French Open, which starts on 26 May.<\/p>\n

Murray has only played once at Roland Garros since undergoing career-saving hip resurfacing surgery in 2019, losing to Stan Warwinka in the first round in 2020.<\/p>\n

Wimbledon, where he is a two-time champion, begins on 1 July, while the Olympics take place in Paris from 26 July.<\/p>\n

Direct entry into the Olympic men’s singles will be given to the top 56 players in the ATP rankings on 10 June.<\/p>\n

However, Murray could be placed outside and still qualify because of withdrawals, he could also be given a spot as a former Olympic and Grand Slam champion.<\/p>\n

His run to the last 32 in Miami took him to 59th in the rankings before this injury setback.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n
