Andy Murray takes first step into dream new sports career after retiring from tennis
Andy Murray called time on his tennis career after competing at the Olympic Games – and now the 37-year-old Scot is hoping to improve his skills with a golf club
Andy Murray will show off his skills in a new sport just weeks after retiring from tennis.
Murray called time on his illustrious tennis career after he and Dan Evans were beaten in the men’s doubles at the Olympic Games on August 1. He is now in the early stages of retired life, but as a hugely competitive sportsperson, he is not just relaxing and looking after his four children.
The 37-year-old has been spending more time embracing another of his passions: golf. His bio on Twitter used to simply read : “I play tennis”. Now it reads: “I played tennis. I now play golf.” And a recent post on his Instagram story showed a slow-motion video of his swing, with the caption: “First ever golf lesson today on the journey to become a scratch golfer. Any tips welcome.”
