The arrival of a fourth child results in Murray withdrawing from the Dubai Open
Andy Murray has joined Roger Federer in making a late withdrawal from next week’s ATP Tour event in Dubai after the birth of his fourth child.
The double Wimbledon champion and wife Kim have quickly built a large family, with the latest arrival putting on hold the next stage of his latest comeback.
The Murrays are now a gang of six, with their latest baby welcomed into the world to join Sophia, Edie and Teddy. Sophia is the eldest, having been born in February 2016.

The Scot’s withdrawal is another blow to the Dubai event, after Federer pulled out late on Thursday night. After his second round defeat by Nikoloz Basilashvili the Swiss believes he needs more time on the practice court.
He will not play in Miami and now has to decide which clay court events he might take part in during the Spring, with the longer term goal to be optimum shape for the grass court season.
