Andy Murray and Johanna Konta will both take part in the Battle of the Brits exhibition tennis tournament, which begins on July 27.

Murray played in a previous, scaled down edition of the tournament at the National Tennis Centre in Roehampton, reaching the semi-finals.

That draw only featured male players, while the upcoming edition will combine stars from both the ATP and WTA tours and will last a week.
