Murray was playing less than 24 hours after winning his first-round match against Australia's Alexei Popyrin.After being broken in the first game, Murray held serve in the third and asked for a medical time-out at the changeover.A huge cheer of encouragement greeted Murray back on to the court but he lasted just two more games before having to stop.

But another fitness issue for Murray feels especially cruel in what he thinks will be the final year of his illustrious career. Even though he was able to return seven weeks later, he has been hampered by a back problem caused by playing on clay.
