ANDY MURRAY bid an emotional farewell to his illustrious tennis career at the Paris Olympics.
Two-time gold medallist Murray, 37, won three Grand Slam titles, including two Wimbledons, spent 41 weeks as the world No1 and played 1,001 singles matches.
Andy Murray retired from tennis at the Paris Olympics. He won Wimbledon twice but now must work out what he does next. Still only in his late 30s, the former world No1 has plenty of options
He did all that during the greatest era of men’s tennis ever seen – up against three titans of the sport in Roger Federer, Rafael Nadal and Novak Djokovic.
The once slightly prickly Scot won over the hearts of the British public on Centre Court – breaking down in tears after losing the 2012 final before making amends 12 months later to end 77 years of hurt.
Murray spent the final five years as a professional playing with a metal hip before his body eventually prevented him from competing at the top any longer.
But before hanging up his racquet as one of Britain’s all-time great athletes, he enjoyed two Murray-culous comebacks from match points down alongside Dan Evans representing Team GB.
