It hasn't been a particularly auspicious clay-court season so far for Andy Murray but then the British player's results always tend to be slightly disappointing on this surface, his least favourite. He lost in the Monte Carlo Masters quarters to Tomas Berdych a couple of weeks ago and suffered a similar loss to Milos Raonic in the last eight of ATP Barcelona last week, outhit again by another power merchant.

Murray was hoping to step things up a gear at the fourth Masters 1000 event of the year but he's been forced to withdraw but the injury is not believed to be too serious and Murray hopes to compete at next week's Rome Masters.

Murray won the Madrid Masters back in 2008 when it was an indoor event but he hasn't had as much success since it changed surfaces to clay, losing to Thomaz Bellucci in straight sets in the third round last year.

Meanwhile all eyes will be on Novak Djokovic as he returns to defend his title with the rampant Rafa Nadal looking to reclaim the title he won two years ago and 2009 champion Roger Federer beginning his clay-court season.
