Andy Murray withdrew from the Rogers Cup because of a knee injury Thursday, the latest top player to pull out of the rain-delayed tournament.
The Olympic gold medalist hurt his left knee Wednesday night during the opening match against Flavio Cipolla. Murray was scheduled to face Canadian Milos Raonic in the third round on Thursday night.
"Normally, when I move on to hard courts, I have 10 days or so practicing and you feel things like this, but you can work around it by doing the right training and what not," Murray said. "I don't want to go full out and possibly do any more damage. That was why I decided not to play."
