I don\u2019t know what more I\u2019m supposed to say.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cI\u2019ve been getting asked about it for 18 months or so, and it\u2019s obviously something I have thought about, but I hadn\u2019t made a decision on.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cOnce I have made the decision, I have expressed that, and no one is listening to it. So I don\u2019t really understand why I keep getting asked, to be honest.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>During an interview with <a href=\"https:\/\/www.bbc.co.uk\/sport\/tennis\/articles\/cd117r7w54eo\">BBC Sport<\/a> just days before his withdrawal from Queen\u2019s, Murray was asked whether he could see himself playing at the US Open or Davis Cup later in the year.<\/p>\n<p>He replied: \u201cI don\u2019t think so. Probably if I was going to finish my career I would rather finish at Wimbledon or an Olympic Games \u2013 to me, that would probably be more fitting.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cI\u2019ve had amazing experiences and memories from Wimbledon, but also being part of British Olympics teams.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cTo get a chance to compete at a fifth one is a reason to stay motivated and continue playing.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cLike I said, a lot of it is based on results and physically how I\u2019m feeling as well.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Of course, that last line seems particularly relevant now. Murray had lost four matches in a row prior to Queen\u2019s and his latest injury setback.<\/p> <p><strong>For more Wimbledon features, check out: <a href=\"https:\/\/www.radiotimes.com\/tv\/sport\/tennis\/wimbledon-questions-facts-faqs\/\">Wimbledon FAQs, facts and figures<\/a> |\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/www.radiotimes.com\/tv\/sport\/tennis\/most-wimbledon-titles-winners\/\">Who has won Wimbledon the most times?<\/a> | <a href=\"https:\/\/www.radiotimes.com\/tv\/sport\/tennis\/wimbledon-hawk-eye\/\">How does Wimbledon Hawk-Eye work?<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n<p><strong>Check out more of our\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/www.radiotimes.com\/tv\/sport\/\" data-outlook-id=\"1ecfb338-0259-4dbc-b0fa-c5906a1a028d\">Sport<\/a>\u00a0coverage or visit our\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/www.radiotimes.com\/tv\/tv-listings\/\" data-outlook-id=\"6228b369-d86e-422b-8cfd-0f37f147ac55\">TV Guide<\/a>\u00a0and\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/www.radiotimes.com\/streaming-guide\/\" data-outlook-id=\"08577dc1-b61a-44eb-8fc3-e1ac61d4968d\">Streaming Guide<\/a>\u00a0to find out what\u2019s on.
