Raonic pulls out of Wimbledon tune-up with reported right shoulder injury

Canada's Milos Raonic withdrew from the Cinch Championships on Tuesday in London, England shortly before his scheduled first-round match at the Wimbledon warm-up tournament.

Raonic, who recently returned to the ATP Tour after an absence of nearly two years, was scheduled to play Australia's Jordan Thompson.

Reports indicate Raonic is nursing a right shoulder injury. Lucky loser Alexei Popyrin of Australia replaced him in the draw.

The severity of the shoulder issue and Raonic's status for Wimbledon in early July remain unclear. Messages left with the ATP Tour and Tennis Canada were not immediately returned.

Raonic, a former world No. 3, has battled a variety of injury problems over his career.

The 32-year-old right-hander from Thornhill, Ont., won his return match at the Libema Open in the Netherlands last week before falling to Thompson in the second round.

Martina Navratilova says she is clear of cancer.

The tennis Hall of Famer announced the news Monday on Twitter after what she said was a full day of tests at Memorial Sloan Kettering Cancer Center.

"Thank you to all the doctors, nurses, proton and radiation magicians etc. — what a relief," she wrote.

Navratilova, 66, revealed she had been diagnosed with throat cancer and breast cancer in January and would begin treatment that month. She had been diagnosed with a noninvasive form of breast cancer in 2010 and had a lumpectomy.

The 18-time Grand Slam singles champion had noticed an enlarged lymph node in her neck in November and a biopsy revealed the early stage throat cancer. But Navratilova felt well enough to return to her TV work with the Tennis Channel by the Miami Open in March.
