Incredible career
Serena Williams honors Murray: “Enjoyed it”
Tennis star Serena Williams (42) has congratulated former world number one Andy Murray (37), who is about to retire, on an "incredible" career.
"I have to say, I've always enjoyed watching you," said the former world number one. One of the reasons for this was that the Scot was one of the few players who was more annoyed on court than she was, the US American said with a grin. That was quite difficult.
Played together in mixed doubles
In 2019, the two tennis aces competed together in the mixed doubles at Wimbledon. For Murray, this year's edition was his last Wimbledon participation. The Scot announced the end of his career this summer and was honored with an emotional ceremony on Thursday evening.
Williams also thanked Murray for supporting women's tennis. "You've been the leader," she said. The two-time Wimbledon winner was the first top player to have a female coach, France's Amelie Mauresmo. Murray had also once corrected a reporter when he overlooked the successes of American female tennis players.
