Laura Robson declines Miami Open qualifying wildcard

Laura Robson retired with the wrist injury in her match against Yanina Wickmayer at the 2014 Hobart International

Former British number one Laura Robson will not take up a wildcard into qualifying for this month's Miami Open after a 14-month injury absence.

Her agent, Max Eisenbud, says she has not suffered any setbacks and is getting "closer and closer" to making her first appearance.

The 21-year-old has not played since losing in the first round of last year's Australian Open.

Robson had surgery on her left wrist last April.

She reached a career high of 27 in the world in 2013.

Fellow Briton Kyle Edmund, 21, has been given a wildcard into the main draw for the men's event after rising to 153 in the world.
