Andy Murray To Skip Davis Cup Tie Against Turkey

Andy Murray has decided to skip the United Kingdom’s upcoming Davis Cup matchup against Turkey on July 9-11.

In Davis Cup lingo a “tie” means a knockout round. Though Murray has now missed his country’s last two matches he must play in at least one tie in the next two years to be eligible to play in the 2012 London Olympics. Given that little tid-bit, it is unlikely that the Scottish-born Murray will stay away from the Davis Cup for too long.
