Andy Murray’s 2022 grass-court schedule is falling into place after it was confirmed he will start next year’s road to Wimbledon at the Mercedes Cup in Stuttgart.

“I’m always looking forward to the grass-court season, so I’ll start my preparations for it a little earlier than usual next year,” Murray said.
“I will be playing on grass in Stuttgart for the first time and I am really looking forward to this new experience.”
Why Andy Murray should take heart from his near misses in 2021
The Mercedes Cup main draw runs from June 6-12 and Murray is expected to conclude his Wimbledon preparation at the Queen’s Club Championships from June 13-19.
He is then set to take the week before Wimbledon off before heading to the All England Club for the grass-court Grand Slam, which will run from June 27 to July 10.
