Andy Murray Deserves Wimbledon Statue for Achievements Says McEnroe

-

Andy Murray is one of the greatest British tennis players ever.

Despite having only three Grand Slam titles, his career achievements are remarkable when you consider he played during the era of Federer, Nadal, and Djokovic.

Murray spent his entire career competing against these legends, making his accomplishments even more impressive .

Murray’s Impressive Career:

Murray reached eleven Grand Slam finals and won three. He also secured 14 ATP Masters 1000 trophies out of 21 finals and a total of 46 titles from 71 finals. On top of that, he clinched two Olympic gold medals in 2012 and 2016. All these feats came while battling the Big Three.

John McEnroe believes Murray deserves a statue at Wimbledon for his contributions to British tennis. “If I was making that decision, I would say absolutely, yes,” said McEnroe. “He’s absolutely changed the way people look at British tennis.”

Fans might think this recognition is long overdue given Murray’s impact on the sport.

Statues at major events aren’t new; Rafael Nadal has one at Roland Garros. McEnroe argues that Murray should have one too at SW19. However, right now, Murray hopes to participate in future events despite uncertainties about his health.

“It would be well deserved,” added McEnroe. “Two of his three Grand Slam wins were at Wimbledon plus the Olympics.”
