Laura Robson handed wildcard for Miami Open

Laura Robson is handed a wildcard into Miami Open qualifying as she prepares to make her return from injury.

Laura Robson has been given a wildcard into qualifying for next month's Miami Open as she prepares to make her return to the WTA Tour.

The 21-year-old has not played competitively since the 2013 Australian Open, and a battle with a wrist injury has forced her to delay a return on a number of occasions.

However, the former British number one is believed to be close to returning to full fitness and will get the opportunity to earn a spot in the main draw in Florida.

Robson abandoned plans to make her comeback at an event in Arizona last month.
