Injured Rusedski angry after loss

Greg Rusedski faces fresh injury doubts ahead of Wimbledon after being
forced to retire from the first round of the Stella Artois Championships.

Rusedski hit out at the tournament organisers after pulling out of his
match against French qualifier Anthony Dupuis with a hip injury.

He said: "I warned the director that if they put me on Monday I might not
be fully fit to go the distance.

"I am absolutely disappointed that they did not listen to a word I said."

Rusedski will have an MRI scan on his injury on Tuesday in order to
establish whether he will be fit enough to compete in next week's Nottingham
Open.

He said: "You would think they would want to help their British players do
well here, they shouldn't hinder them.

"But they obviously ignored that my request, knowing the extra 24 hours would
have made a massive difference.

"It is not as if they could not put me first match on Tuesday, it is no big
deal. I am used to being screwed on schedules by now.

"But you expect at least in Britain at home to get one request granted."

The British number one took the first set 7-5 but required an extended
medical time-out in the second, which he lost 6-3.

He continued to struggle in the deciding set, but retired at 3-2 up.

Rusedski had enjoyed a reasonably encouraging clay court campaign and
was building up to Wimbledon, which starts on 26 June.
