Andy Murray will head a field that includes four of the world's top 10 players at next month's Aegon Championships at Queen's Club in London. The pre-Wimbledon grass-court event announced a line-up in which every entrant is ranked inside the world's top 100.

Murray (world No 3) – who is joined by Tomas Berdych (No 6), Juan Martin del Potro (No 7) and Jo-Wilfried Tsonga (No 8) – is one of four former winners in the field, alongside Marin Cilic, the defending champion, Sam Querrey and Lleyton Hewitt.

One absentee is David Nalbandian, who was defaulted from last year's final for injuring a line judge when he kicked an advertising panel in frustration. The world No 129 did not seek a place in the event.
