The news came on the day that Bogdanovic was going some way to lifting the spirits of Britain's tennis players in the AEGON Championship at Queen's Club, London. Rain put an end to play at 7pm on Monday with Bogdanovic 2-1 ahead in the final set against Bulgaria's former junior Wimbledon champion Grigor Dimitrov.
Bogdanovic was one of three British players on Centre Court at Queen's, coming on court after Jamie Baker and James Ward had gone out.
Andy Murray begins his campaign against Spain's Ivan Navarro, while American Andy Roddick starts out against Igor Kunitsyn.
While Baker and Ward were given Queen's Club wild cards, Bogdanovic had to go through qualifying, and it is understood he has rejected the chance to play in the Davis Cup for Great Britain against Turkey at Eastbourne the week after Wimbledon.
Bogdanovic won the first set 6-4 against Dimitrov but could not continue in the same vein - losing the second set 6-3 to his Bulgarian opponent.
But as the rain began to fall, the Englishman managed to edge ahead in the decider.
