The world number two struggled through Wimbledon with the problem&comma; losing in the quarter-finals to Sam Querrey&comma; but his prospects for Flushing Meadows had looked positive when he travelled to New York last weekend&period;<&sol;p>&NewLine;<p>However&comma; after a week of practice Murray has decided he is not fit enough to do himself justice&period;<br &sol;>&NewLine;The Scot&comma; who looked close to tears&comma; said&colon; &&num;8220&semi;I did pretty much everything I could to get myself ready here&comma; took a number of weeks off after Wimbledon&comma; spoke to a lot of hip specialists&comma; tried resting&comma; rehabbing to get myself ready here and was practising okay the last few days but it&&num;8217&semi;s too sore for me to win the tournament and ultimately that&&num;8217&semi;s what I was here to try and do&comma;

who have all brought their seasons to an early end because of injury&period;<&sol;p>&NewLine;<p>Murray said he would make a decision &&num;8220&semi;in the next couple of days&&num;8221&semi;&comma; with surgery an option he may now consider&period; He has been reluctant to go into detail about the injury&comma; saying at Wimbledon it was something that had affected him on and off for a number of years but never to the extent of this summer&&num;8217&semi;s flare-up&period;<&sol;p>&NewLine;<p>Murray said&colon; &&num;8220&semi;I certainly wouldn&&num;8217&semi;t have been hurting myself more by trying to play&period; It was more a question of whether it would settle down in time&period; I kind of ran out of time&period; &&num;8220&semi;I have never had to take any time off because of my hip before&comma; so we were hoping that by taking a few weeks off and resting and rehabbing and really reducing the load that I was putting through it&comma; that I would be okay by the time the US Open came around&comma; but unfortunately that&&num;8217&semi;s not been the case&period;<&sol;p>&NewLine;<p>&&num;8220&semi;I spoke to a number of specialists about it to get the best advice possible&period; Obviously when you speak to a lot&comma; there is different views and opinions on what the best thing to do is moving forward&comma; and that&&num;8217&semi;s a decision I&&num;8217&semi;ll need to take now&period;<&sol;p>&NewLine;<p>&&num;8220&semi;I&&num;8217&semi;ll sit down and decide with my team in the next couple of days&comma;
