As British tennis legend Andy Murray reaches the twilight of his career, his Wimbledon swan song has been a tumultuous one. Having to withdraw from singles action due to not being able to recover from spinal cyst surgery in time, there was still hope to see him in mixed doubles and men’s doubles action for one last time.
Now, with his mixed doubles partner Emma Raducanu having to withdraw from the match, Murray’s mother, Judy Murray, has come out to tweet about the decision of Raducanu, and it appears she isn’t too happy.
Andy Murray’s Tennis Legacy
He will go down as one of the greats, winning three Grand Slams
Andy Murray will go down as one of the best tennis players of all time, managing to make a name for himself in an era that saw him battle against Roger Federer, Rafael Nadal, and Novak Djokovic. His Wimbledon victories in 2013 and 2016 are the standout moments of a career that can only be defined as legendary.
With the Scottish-born tennis star planning to retire after the Paris Olympics, fans realised that this would be their last chance to see Murray compete at the All England Club. In a tournament that hasn’t gone his way, he had to withdraw from singles action, and has now had his mixed doubles partner suffer the same fate, with Emma Raducanu withdrawing due to a stiff wrist, the same wrist that she had surgery on last year.
Judy Murray’s Reaction to Emma Raducanu’s Decision
Understandably protecting herself so she can perform in singles action, that hasn’t stopped Judy Murray from chiming in, with Murray’s mother and former coach taking to X to let her feelings be known. Replying to someone who claimed Raducanu’s decision was astonishing, Judy Murray reciprocated this feeling by tweeting: “Yes, astonishing.”
