Murray out of Dubai with hip complaint

Andy Murray on Monday withdrew from the ATP Dubai event due to hip pain.

The Scot who battled his way into the weekend final in Doha – he played four three-set matches before losing the final to Daniil Medvedev – improved his ranking form 70 to its current 52nd with his run of fightback form.

The 35-year-old has been making major improvements in form after battling through half a decade of hip problems, including two surgeries.

He will be replaced in the draw headed by Novak Djokovic by a lucky loser form qualifying.
