Andy Murray and Emma Raducanu to play in Wimbledon mixed doubles

Andy Murray will play with Emma Raducanu in a superstar mixed doubles partnership as part of his Wimbledon farewell.

Murray, 37, is playing at the Championships for the final time before retiring later this year.

The two-time men’s singles champion decided on Tuesday he was not fit enough to play in the singles after a recent back operation.

Murray will play in the men’s doubles alongside older brother Jamie and has now also opted to join forces with Raducanu in an eye-catching pairing.

Speaking after practice on Tuesday, and before the news broke on Wednesday about his partnership with Raducanu, Murray said: “Doubles is a slightly different game in terms of the physicality of it and I am looking forward to that.”

Murray played with American great Serena Williams in the 2019 mixed doubles at Wimbledon, describing it as a “once in a lifetime” opportunity.

Playing alongside 2021 US Open champion Raducanu is set to be another special occasion in the final weeks of his illustrious career.

Raducanu, asked earlier this week about the possibility of teaming up with Murray, said it was “always a dream” to play the mixed doubles on Centre Court with “Mr Wimbledon”.
