Former world number 1, Andy Murray will not compete at the 2022 Roland Garros as he wants to prepare for the Wimbledon where he triumphed twice.
Before taking a wildcard into the Madrid Open earlier this month, the three-time Grand Slam champion was supposed to skip the whole clay court season. Andy Murray had a strong start to the event, defeating Dominic Thiem and Denis Shapovalov before facing Novak Djokovic in the third round.
However, the 35-year-old was forced to withdraw from the match against the world number one due to food poisoning, and he was slated to compete at Roland Garros. Murray now appears to be focusing his preparations on the grass court season rather than competing in the Grand Slam event. Murray hasn't played at Roland Garros since a first-round exit in 2020, and his Wimbledon run in 2021 ended in the third round.
