    In 2024, Evans sacrificed the 500 ranking points he had won at the Washington Open the previous year to partner fellow Briton Andy Murray for his final tournament at the Paris Olympics.

    The pair lost in the quarter-finals in what was the last match of Murray’s illustrious career.

    “Representing Great Britain in both Davis Cup and the Olympics remains the greatest honour of my career and something I will cherish for the rest of my life,” added Evans, who played 28 Davis Cup ties for Great Britain.

    Evans, who was suspended for a year after testing positive for cocaine in 2017, thanked his family for their “unwavering support through every high and low”.

    “I’m looking forward to finishing on a high… and giving everything I have one last time,” he said.

    Wimbledon starts on 29 June, although Evans would have to go through qualifying or receive a wildcard to play in the main draw.

    He has failed to advance through qualifying at the past three Grand Slams, while he received a wildcard for last year’s Wimbledon.

    The tournament’s wildcard committee will meet on Tuesday to decide which players they would like to invite into the main draw.
