Andy Murray to have new doubles partner at Eastbourne, but Wimbledon plans still not confirmed

Andy Murray will continue his comeback at the Nature Valley International next week and he will partner the experienced Marcelo Melo.

Former world No 1 Murray will play his first competitive match since the Australian Open in January when he takes to the court alongside Feliciano Lopez in the doubles at the Fever-Tree Championship on Thursday.

However, the Murray-Lopez partnership will be broken up after the Queen’s Club tournament as the three-time Grand Slam winner will play with Brazilian Melo at Eastbourne.

Melo is currently ranked fourth in the doubles and is a two-time Grand Slam men’s doubles winner.

Murray, though, is yet to confirm who he will partner if he decides to play in the doubles at Wimbledon.
