Tennis ace Andy Murray's Wimbledon swansong has been cut short by mixed doubles partner Emma Raducanu.
Raducanu has pulled out of their much-anticipated match, citing a wrist injury. The dynamic duo were all set to light up Saturday evening on Court One.
But Raducanu has had to put the brakes on, saying: "Unfortunately I woke up with some stiffness in my right wrist this morning, so I have taken the very tough decision to withdraw from the mixed doubles."

The Scottish legend, who missed out on singles action and faced an early exit in the men's doubles with bro Jamie, won't get his last dance at SW19 after all.
Raducanu, 21, who once dreamed of teaming up with Murray for his final bow at the iconic tournament, is now throwing her full weight behind her singles quest. She added, "I'm disappointed as I was really looking forward to playing with Andy, but I've got to take care."

The British starlet is into the fourth round, her best slam showing since that fairy-tale US Open victory, and she's not letting anything mess with her mojo.
Despite the scheduling snafu that had them pegged for a 5pm start which Raducanu hinted was less than perfect she's laser-focused on Sunday's showdown against wildcard Lulu Sun.
Following his straight-set defeat alongside his brother, Andy Murray was given a heartfelt tribute on Centre Court at SW19. The 37-year-old tennis star was shown a video on the big screen featuring tributes from modern icons to the three-time Grand Slam winner.
BBC brought back beloved presenter Sue Barker for the ceremony, who had been a key figure during both of his Wimbledon victories. "It is hard because I want to keep playing, but I can't," he confessed on court.
"Physically it's too tough now. I want to play forever. I love the sport."
Murray faced a challenging battle to participate in his final Wimbledon after undergoing surgery on a spinal cyst just days before the championships began. He had to withdraw from the singles competition, giving him a chance to play alongside Jamie.

"It was obviously very special to play with Jamie, we've not had the chance to do it before," Murray added. "It was a race against time to get out here and physically it wasn't easy but I'm glad we were able to do it one time together."
Murray hinted at a potential coaching career post-retirement, but regardless, he will conclude his career as one of Britain's greatest ever sportspeople.
After suffering a heartbreaking loss in the Wimbledon final in 2012, the Dunblane-born star went on to clinch Olympic gold at London 2012.
In 2013, Murray cemented his place in sporting history by defeating Novak Djokovic in straight sets to become the first British man to win Wimbledon in 77 years. He repeated this incredible feat three years later before injuries began to impact the latter stages of his illustrious career.
