World number three Andy Murray has withdrawn from next week's Shanghai Masters tournament because of his on-going wrist wound.
The 22-year-old provoked the problem in Great Britain's Davis Cup defeat to Poland last month.
In a letter to tournament organisers Murray apologized for his absence. "I make an apology for the inconvenience that my withdrawal may cause but I trust you understand the circumstance is beyond my control and I would much rather participate in the tournament than be in the current position regarding my health".
A statement on Murray's Web site revealed he came to the conclusion after receiving medical advice and has pencilled in a return date. "He has decided to give his wrist extra time to recover and is likely to return for the Valencia Open."
Murray's injury is the latest blow in a frustrating year for the Briton, whose last ATP appearance came in his U.S. Open defeat to Marin Cillic.
