WASHINGTON — Andy Murray’s comeback from a career-threatening hip injury will continue next week at the Citi Open in Washington, where he will play doubles alongside his brother, Jamie.
The Citi Open will be Andy Murray’s fourth event, and his first on a hard court, since he had a hip resurfacing operation in January. After playing doubles at Wimbledon, he expressed uncertainty about when he would compete again, but the Citi Open is under new ownership and has committed to making doubles a centerpiece.
In singles, the biggest attraction may be a women’s exhibition match involving Coco Gauff, the teenager who became a breakout star at Wimbledon.
