Andy Murray has confirmed the 2024 Paris Olympic Games will be his 'last ever tennis tournament' as he prepares to retire later this summer. The two-time gold medal winner will compete at his fifth Games after making an emotional farewell at Wimbledon earlier this month as he teamed up with brother Jamie in the doubles in his final appearance at the All England Club. 'Arrived in Paris for my last ever tennis tournament,' Murray wrote on Twitter/X.
He spoke at length in the wake of his doubles match alongside brother Jamie, admitting it felt like the end. 'I'm ready to finish playing,' he said at the time. 'I don't want that to be the case. I would love to play, like I said, forever. 'This year's been tough with the ankle, then obviously the back surgery, obviously the hip. I'm ready to finish playing because I can't play to the level that I would want to anymore. 'I know that it's time now.
