Judy Murray shares biggest regret after Andy retires from tennis at Olympics
Judy Murray has shared her regret that Scotland wasn’t able to benefit more from son Andy Murray’s incredible tennis career. The two-time Wimbledon champion has retired following his defeat alongside doubles partner Dan Evans at the Olympics.
Murray was born in Dunblane, Scotland, but moved to Spain as a teenager to progress his tennis career. He subsequently won tournaments all over the world but very rarely had the opportunity to return home.
Mum Judy is a big advocate for grassroots sport and clearly feels Scotland’s facilities have not benefited from her son’s career.
Responding to a post on X detailing statistics from Murray’s career, she wrote: “From Dunblane in Scotland. How I wish we had more to show for all of this in our home country.”
Glasgow hosts an ATP Challenger event in February but it is rarely contested by the world’s top players. Most of the remaining professional tournaments in the United Kingdom are played in England.
