Andy Murray has revealed his mum would still send him to the naughty step if he followed in the footsteps of Carlos Alcaraz and got tattoos of all the major tennis titles he’s won.
Alcaraz has taken the tennis world by storm and is emerging as the standout player on the ATP Tour
With four to his name already, at just 21 years old Alcaraz boasts more Grand Slams than Murray, who is 16 years his senior.
Alcaraz has already won the French Open and Wimbledon this year alone, with the Spaniard now setting his sights on winning Olympic gold in Paris next month.
Naturally, if he wins, it would mean the Olympic rings are added to Alcaraz’s wearable trophy cabinet, but Murray has insisted he isn’t planning on following suit.
A winner of two Olympic golds already, when asked if he’s tempted to get a tattoo, the Scot told Hello!: “Um, I don’t think so, no. I still feel like my parents would kill me if I got a tattoo.”
The Paris Olympics will likely represent the last chance for Murray to add to his honours list, with the 37-year-old set to retire from tennis after the Games.
And when asked what it means to represent Great Britain for one final time, Murray replied: “It’s something that makes me really, really proud. I love being part of TeamGB and competing for my country.”
