The All England Club is set to recognise Sir Andy Murray’s contribution to tennis with a statue of him at Wimbledon.
Murray ended Britain’s 77-year wait for a men’s singles champion at Wimbledon with a memorable victory over Novak Djokovic in 2013, and triumphed again at SW19 in 2016 when he beat Milos Raonic.
Former Wimbledon chief executive Richard Lewis in 2019 said the club would honour Murray with a statue when he finished playing.
The Scot retired from professional tennis in August 2024 following an appearance at the Olympic Games in Paris.
