Andy Murray has passed a late fitness test and will lead the field at the pre-Wimbledon Queen’s club grass event starting on Monday. The world number four, who owns two titles from the last three edition at the classy west London venue, had been declared doubtful after carrying a back injury through the French Open where he lost in the quarter-finals to David Ferrer. But Murray on Saturday confirmed that he will start his only official warmup for Wimbledon, which begins June 25.
Serb Janko Tipsarevic is seeded third ahead of Frenchman Gilles Simon with Spain’s Feliciano Lopez on fifth.
