MURRAY'S WIMBLEDON OVER

Briton's mixed doubles partner Raducanu withdraws as he looks to end career in Paris

- 

Andy Murray's iconic Wimbledon career ended with a whimper on July 6, when his mixed doubles partner Emma Raducanu pulled out of the event, denying the former champion one last appearance at the All England Club.

Murray was due to have a final Wimbledon swansong with fellow Briton Raducanu after losing in the men's doubles with his brother Jamie on July 4.

The 37-year-old is set to retire after the July 26-Aug 11 Paris Olympics.

Murray, a two-time Wimbledon champion, and Raducanu, who won the US Open in 2021, were scheduled to play Zhang Shuai and Marcelo Arevalo on July 6. However, Raducanu withdrew several hours before the match in a bid to ensure she did not aggravate a wrist problem.

"Unfortunately, I woke up with some stiffness in my right wrist. So, therefore, I have decided to make the very tough decision to withdraw from the mixed doubles tonight," she said in a statement.

"I'm disappointed as I was really looking forward to playing with Andy, but got to take care."

Murray became the first British man to win Wimbledon in 77 years when he beat Novak Djokovic in the 2013 final.
