    Andy Murray has taken a wildcard entry for the Nottingham Open to continue his grass-court preparations for Wimbledon.

    The former world number one joins British number two Dan Evans in the field for the Challenger event.

    Murray has opted to play in Nottingham instead of Stuttgart to cut down on travel but also because the surface is similar to both Queen's and Wimbledon.

    BBC Sport brings you live coverage of the event from Monday as Evans bids to retain the men's title.

    World number 25 Evans also accepted a wildcard to the Challenger event as he seeks to find his best form before heading to SW19 in July.

    He is joined by fellow Britons Liam Broady and Jan Choinski as well as Murray, who has reached the final at Surbiton this week.

    How a generation of tennis players changed the world in the 1970s and 1980s.

    BBC Sport

    A new BBC documentary series - Gods of Tennis - takes viewers back to the 1970s and 1980s to explore how a generation of megastars truly put the sport on the map.

    Over the course of two decades, players such as Bjorn Borg, John McEnroe, Billie Jean King, Arthur Ashe, Chris Evert and Martina Navratilova became tennis' first major celebrities.

    Tracy Austin, who won the US Open in 1979 aged just 16, remembers Borg being treated by fans as if he were one of the Beatles.

    Commercial success followed, and some players used their increased profile to help drive social change.

    Austin describes Ashe and King as "incredible champions" but adds what they did off the court was "probably bigger".

    Across three hour-long episodes, Gods of Tennis speaks to the players who were there.
