He forced a deciding set against Italian Matteo Berrettini, but was unable to finish the job for his first title since 2019. But Murray picked up an abdominal strain in the final, forcing him to withdraw from Queen’s this week.
The former British No 1 still hopes to be fit for Wimbledon and still might play an exhibition at the Hurlingham Club in London next week.
“After having a scan this afternoon, an abdominal injury means I won’t be fit to compete at Queen’s this year,” Murray said. “The tournament means a lot to me, and it’s disappointing not to compete, especially after playing some good matches on the grass already.”
