Andy Murray’s missed”- Casper Ruud dedicates point won at US Open to Brit days after Emma Raducanu’s controversial remarks about his retirement

Casper Ruud won an incredible point by covering the width of the court multiple times during his 2024 US Open second-round match and dedicated it to Andy Murray. The Norwegian even mentioned that the Brit is missed on tour. This comes after Emma Raducanu’s controversial take on the impact of Murray’s retirement.
Initially, controversy ensued when Raducanu backed out of the mixed doubles event with Andy Murray at Wimbledon, effectively ending his Grasscourt Slam career. Further, during a recent press conference, Raducanu was asked if the tour felt different without Murray, who retired after the Paris Olympics.

She commended Murray for his achievements and revealed she saw him win the US Open in 2012 but felt that tennis is ‘fast-paced’ just like life and ‘it’s old news the next day.’

Days after the 21-year-old’s comments, Ruud dedicated a ‘side to side’ point he earned, to Murray. The Norwegian took to X to repost a video of him running the width of the court multiple times to win a point in the fourth-set tiebreak against Gael Monfils. He wrote:
“A tribute point to @andy_murray , you’re missed over here!”
