The Scot will compete in singles and doubles in what is set to be his final tournament.
Andy Murray’s place in the men’s doubles event at the Paris Olympics alongside Dan Evans has been confirmed.
But he and Evans were left waiting to see whether they would get into the doubles, which represents Murray’s best chance of a medal.It will be a fifth Games for the 37-year-old, who picked up gold medals in singles in 2012 and 2016 as well as a silver medal in mixed doubles with Laura Robson in London.
Injury doubts surrounded both Murray and Evans when they retired from matches at Queen’s Club but Evans’ knee problem was not as serious as feared while Murray is fighting to be fit for Wimbledon following back surgery.There will also be a fourth Olympic appearance for Heather Watson in the women’s doubles alongside debutante Katie Boulter, who is Britain’s only representative in the singles.
“I’m really looking forward to playing with her. We played a couple times, once years ago on the grass, then just recently at Roland Garros. She’s a great girl. I love playing doubles with her.
