Andy Murray: The Inspiring Story of One of Tennis’ Greatest Stars

Andy Murray played tennis as a child, turning professional at the tender age of eighteen. He is Britain’s most successful tennis player having won three major Grand Slam singles titles and two Olympic gold medals, while also reaching eleven major finals at the time of writing. Murray’s incredible tennis career coincided with a golden era of the sport dominated by the likes of Roger Federer, Novak Djokovic, and Rafael Nadal. It was in 2012 that he entered their ranks after winning his first Grand Slam title at the US Open, defeating Djokovic, the defending champion 7–6, 7–5, 2–6, 3–6, 6–2. A year later he made history by becoming the first British man to win the Wimbledon championship since 1936. Playing at top level has taken a toll on his body forcing him to fight his way back from injury and surgery. Never one to give up easily, Andy Murray has shown himself to be a giant of the sport and a man who will continue to inspire long after he hangs up his tennis racquet.
