Tennis jock, Andy Murray confirms his retirement after the Olympics, shutting a historic career. Andy himself announced via social media on Tuesday.
"Arrived in Paris for my last-ever tennis tournament @Olympics", the post cites.
Ranked world no. 1, straight for 41 weeks by the Associations of Tennis Professionals ATP, the 37-year-old will play in the singles and doubles at his fifth Olympics.
The 37-year-old further said, "Competing for Great Britain has been by far the most memorable weeks of my career and I am extremely proud to get to do it one final time."
A two-time Olympic champion, Murray has a medical injury. He played with a metal hip since 2019 and incurred ankle damage earlier this year during decompression with Spine Fusion surgery, which became the reason for his removal from singles at Wimbledon.
Speaking of which, he is accounted for wetting the parched land of the British champion at Wimbledon when he won against the now world no.1 Novak Djokovic in 2013, ending a 77-year wait.
It all started in 2012 when he won the US Open 2012, and after that, he broke the gates of the Grand Slam by winning his second Wimbledon in 2016.
His penchant for defeating world champions also began in 2012, when he won gold against Roger Federer in the All England Club. It was the same year when he lost his Wimbledon final to Federer in the same centre court.
The ball curve of his career took heights when four years later he again clinched gold in the Olympics against Juan Martin del Potro.
