Very disappointing news.  bleh  Arguably, the key paragraph in that Beeb report is a quote from Jack himself:

"However, I've had this injury for a long time. I'm at the very, very end stages of the [recovery] process and to step back on court into best-of-five-set tennis so soon just doesn't seem like a smart decision right now for me and my tennis."

And as Jonathan Jurejko opines in his analysis at the end, better safe than sorry.

Bad news indeed. On the plus side though, Jack has just the 200 points from the AO that he can't defend and his next drop is Doha on 23rd February. So hopefully this withdrawal won't set back his ranking too badly.

Oh that is sooo disappointing for his followers and fans. Poor Jack though. Why is the healing so slow I wonder?

 Good to hear! 

The article implies Leon has or will v soon name his strongest team, but not sure what he plans to announce?

 

Jack, Cam, Jake?

Julian and Lloyd? Presumably?

 Ah, I didnt see it against the bold type they use for talking about Ruud. Just completely lost that bit of detail. 

So, yes!
