Tennis legend Andy Murray, now 36, targets a likely final crack at an Olympic appearance in 2024 in Paris following a failed attempt at the 2020 Tokyo Games due to injury
Briton Andy Murray said he hopes to play in his fifth and likely final Olympic Games in Paris next year, after the two-time gold medalist endured disappointment in Tokyo due to injury.
Murray continued to compete in the doubles tournament with Joe Salisbury in Japan, where the pair reached the quarterfinals. “I was really disappointed last time. I’d gotten an injury before the tournament and I promised my partner I’d prioritize the doubles over singles if there was a problem. And we were very close to getting a medal in the doubles.”
