Andy Murray missed the chance to test himself against his old rival Novak Djokovic for the first time since 2017 when he was forced to withdraw from their third round match at the Madrid Open due to illness.
It is a tough blow for Murray, who withdrew just over an hour before the pair had been scheduled to compete as the first match on Manolo Santana Stadium on Thursday. It would have marked their first match in more than five years and their 37th overall.
