Doubt
@andy_murray
has ever considered a career in politics but his awareness of social issues and the way he reacts positively, and selflessly, would put him streets ahead of many at Westminster. And we know how good he is at standing up for what he believes in too👏💪
The guy at the centre of this picture is, without doubt, the greatest player in the history of tennis.
Doesn’t matter if you dislike him or worship Roger + Rafa (both amazing) but the stats speak for themselves.
@DjokerNole
= GOAT and, for now, it’s not up for debate 👏
A couple of days ago I suggested
@andy_murray
is arguably the greatest fighter in the history of the men’s game.
I’m now officially deleting the word arguably from that statement☺️
#extraordinaryAGAIN
Cliff Drysdale has, while talking to John McEnroe on ESPN in America, just described the absence of
@DjokerNole
at the US Open as ‘a shame if not a crime.’
What can you say about
@andy_murray
🙏👍 Unbelievable return to the winners box for a man who won’t take no for an answer and who clearly has so much still to offer. Can you be knighted twice?😜
#winner
Astonishing news that Emma Raducanu has withdrawn from her mixed doubles match with Andy Murray.
She’s citing soreness in her right wrist. 😲
It means Murray has played his last match at Wimbledon.
Oh dear!
So
@andy_murray
now has a metal hip to go with his iron will and brave heart. Maybe, just maybe there are still more chapters of his glorious career to be written? 💪
After her fine handling of the on court interview with Sacha Zverev I think
@Annabel_Croft
should now be put in charge of BREXIT negotiations 😜 Well done partner 🙏
So
@DjokerNole
will now be deported after losing his appeal. ‘Biggest shame in the history of sport’ is the instant headline In Serbia. The consequences of this unedifying saga will be far-reaching I suspect
Surprised to read tweets by usually well informed people saying they don’t care what happens in the
@DjokerNole
saga anymore. Whatever your views it’s a massive issue that will set a precedent and throws up so many uncomfortable questions.
Find it strange that at no point during my recent trip to Cincinnati did anyone check on my vaccination details and yet one of the greatest players of all time is still being banned from the US Open.
Won’t be the same without
@DjokerNole
+that’s a fact.
Possibly the last time
@andy_murray
walks out alongside his brother
@jamie_murray
in competitive action.
2 fabulous sportsmen who have done themselves, their nation and the sport of tennis proud 👏💪
@BattleofTheBrit
@the_LTA
Guess we are all gutted but
@andy_murray
has exceeded expectations by a country mile AGAIN this week 💪
Sincerely hope the Australian Open organisers look, learn and improve the scheduling after everything that’s happened this week.
Sensational night of tennis and a magnificent victory for
@DjokerNole
👏 He rates it as one of his top 3 career wins. Why
@BenRothenberg
has to seek a negative angle yet again is beyond me 😒 Feel he’d be better off covering a different sport
#NadalVsDjokovic
#titans
Keep being asked if I’m I surprised by the win for
@andy_murray
today.
No way! He is a sheer….bloody-minded…..genius!! Arguably the greatest fighter in the history of the men’s game. And I really don’t think that’s too OTT 💪👏
On reflection; Serena’s class speech fails to overshadow unacceptable on court behaviour which (as a Mum) was a poor example for young players. Mouratoglou didn’t help her by going public so quickly. The umpire was simply doing his job and the USTA statement is embarrassing.
Whatever you think of
@DjokerNole
+ whatever your views on vaccinations and sovereign as well as individual rights this increasingly “politics”driven story is starting to be as much an embarrassment for Australia as our cricketers recent efforts down under have been for us 😟
So sad for
@andy_murray
who treated us to a magnificent sporting adventure. Fiercely determined, hugely successful and surprisingly thoughtful with an often overlooked dry sense of humour. I hope the pain he’s feeling will be eased by the pride and gratitude we feel for him🙏💪
Win number 700 for
@andy_murray
was like so many of the others. Nerve-racking, topsy-turvy, eventful and ultimately hugely satisfying 👏💪 Magnificent achievement from a remarkable competitor.
Here’s to many more.
I’ve been lucky enough to follow the career of
@andy_murray
closely for 15 years but he never ceases to amaze me.
His performance tonight against the brilliant
@jackdraper0
was extraordinary 👏
He truly is the ultimate fighter 💪
#remarkable
@BattleofTheBrit
Win number 999. World number 1 position secure for
@rolandgarros
+ seemingly back to his best after a torrid few months. I know some of you have issues with
@DjokerNole
but, to me, he is a truly remarkable player and poised to dominate the tennis world again.
I know that big sporting events shy away from political issues but for the AustralianOpen to ban the Peng Shuai T-Shirts on the back of the regrettable handling of the
@DjokerNole
saga is not a good look!
Just returned from a dramatic game of golf to hear that
@andy_murray
(like me🤗) was victorious against
@RafaelNadal
😝👏
Only an exhibition but 2022 may yet provide another astonishing chapter in the story of the brave knight who refuses to say good night to his career 👀 💪
The absence of
@DjokerNole
and presence of Sacha Zverev
@BNPPARIBASOPEN
will fill many column inches and, without wishing to go into all the arguments again, is not a good look for tennis 🤨
Look closely at the roller and you’ll see it’s a case of only the best for the best
@Wimbledon
#COYS
Who will be the best in the women’s final? Find out on
@WimbledonChnl
All good things must come to an end. Likewise great things 😢
Andy + Dan put on quite a show this week flying the flag for 🇬🇧
And as for the last 20 years! Can only say a huge thank you
@andy_murray
It’s been an unbelievable adventure 👏🎾🏆🏆🏆🥇
Have to agree with Andy Roddick who reckons
@andy_murray
is adding to his legacy by showing so much guts + determination of late.
Fingers crossed the ligament injuries aren’t too bad and he can treat us to more drama on the grass this summer 💪
A 3 hour match ends at 3 in the morning with a man who never throws in the towel crying into one full of emotion after another gruelling win. This
@andy_murray
comeback week is becoming rather special 🙏🌕
Fantastic effort by
@andy_murray
👏 who will rue the missed second set points 😖 but played at a level few thought possible 💪 His clear disapproval of some of Tsitsipas’ “tactics” provided extra spice. The rules must be looked at 😤 Plenty to reflect on
@primevideosport
I feel sick after watching that
@andy_murray
match.
He’s maddening, mesmerising, unique and utterly irreplaceable but I’m not sure how much more I/he/we can take.
Still think he’s capable of doing something special between now + the olympics though so KEEP BELIEVING EVERYONE 💪
Not quite the end to the week
@andy_murray
was hoping for but some effort nonetheless 💪
Hope the body is ok with so much to look forward to during the grass court swing 🎾👀👏
This final chapter in the
@andy_murray
story is proving every bit as riveting as all that’s come before 💪
And Dan Evans is pushing hard for a best supporting role award 😛👍 despite that wobble at the end of the second set!
7 MP’s saved so far…..onto the quarters
@Olympics
Remarkable fight back from
@cam_norrie
to beat Carlos Alcaraz from a set + a break down and so win the Rio Open 👏💪
He deserves a heck of a lot more appreciation for his sustained success at the top of the game.
Not surprised to read criticism for Novak Djokovic regarding his interaction with the crowd yesterday.
I don’t have a problem with his demeanour. Novak’s ability to deal with adversity is extraordinary.
And I’d much rather he be true to himself, even if that does rile some.
First the fairytale in New York for
@EmmaRaducanu
and now desert delight for
@cam_norrie
the 1st British winner in Indian Wells💪🏆 He’s up to 16 in the world and just 125 points away from the last automatic spot in Turin.
Golden days for British tennis 😜
@the_LTA
@atp
@WTA
Not to be for
@andy_murray
but everything
@JohnIsner
did this evening, including his dignified celebration + superb post-match interview, was very classy 👏Hopeful we haven’t seen the last of our brave Scottish knight though 💪
@Wimbledon
@WimbledonChnl
My Dad passed away 20 years ago today. Still dream about him and miss him so much. Here’s to all of you who’ve lost loved ones and have days of silent tears ❤️
She’s only gone and done it!
@EmmaRaducanu
becomes the first qualifier EVER to reach a grand slam final after another remarkable straight sets win 🇬🇧👏
It ends a 178 slam wait for a British woman in a final stretching back to Virginia Wade’s Wimbledon triumph.
Extraordinary💪
The lack of communication between the sport and the public over this issue HAS to be addressed. Why doesn’t the umpire explain at the start of the match why there won’t be a handshake. Not fair on Azarenka here
Wow, Azarenka leaves the court to huge boos. Stops and stares at the crowd before banging her fists together. Do they think she didn't shake hands with Svitolina? Maybe. She put up a hand in acknowledgement. Nothing from Svitolina.
Over the past few years
@Martina
has been a joy to work with. Knowing how strong and determined she is I’m sure the cancer that’s been diagnosed will be comprehensively beaten just as the vast majority of her opponents on court were. 💪
Love + best wishes to a true great.
Harsh lesson for
@EmmaRaducanu
but before anyone starts piling into her let’s remember today was only the 3rd time she’s faced a top 20 opponent. Patience is the key throughout 2022
Superb stuff from
@jackdraper0
💪
His destruction of FAA means Great Britain has 4 men inside the world’s top 50 for the first time EVER 😛👏

@atptour
🥂
So impressed with
@jamie_murray
and the magnificent way that, along with his dedicated team, he has served up some superb
@BattleofTheBrit
events to keep us engaged and entertained during this strange summer of sport 👏
Sorry but not surprised that
@andy_murray
has withdrawn from Washington and Canada. He has to act in his own best interests and the sport needs to protect its players as much as possible. Starting matches at midnight is probably not the best way of doing that!! 🙄
No surprise to hear that
@DjokerNole
will go to the States but can we stop talking about putting an asterisk against the eventual winners at
@usopen
Those brave enough to travel, play and ultimately triumph will be true Champions in every sense, irrespective of who’s not there.
Want to say a BIG thank you to everyone who has left such positive and morale boosting messages following our final show on
@SkySportsTennis
last night. Means a lot‼️ Congrats to
#Zverev
for a sensational performance and stand by for some photos of our farewell party tonight 🍸🤪
So now we know that, be it a tennis court or any other court,
@DjokerNole
is not a man to mess with.
The Aussie govt finds itself 2 sets and a double break down and though the immigration minister technically still has a racket in his hand it’s surely game, set + match Novak
I’m mystified and rather saddened by much of what has been said and written in the aftermath of the women’s final. Carlos Ramos may have been strict but sexist!?! Come on😡. A lot of people in responsible positions have reacted very irresponsibly and tainted a great sport
Happy Birthday to Steffi Graf who I could and should have “asked out” after an interview following her
@Wimbledon
win in ‘96. She told me she had no plans that night and I bottled it😫 Advantage never regained 😌
Always liked Mohamed Lahyani (who’s bladder control is second to none- he didn’t leave court once during the Isner-Mahut Wimby epic remember 👏) Having read the USTA statement I hope everyone goes easy on him. A showman perhaps, but a kind one
In the absence of Federer + Djokovic and following the early exit of Andy Murray there’s something incredibly reassuring about the trademark resilience + brilliance of
@RafaelNadal
in that opening set with the admirable Mannarino.
@AustralianOpen
Frustrating night for
@andy_murray
who was a break up in both sets against
@AlexZverev
Couldn’t quite get over the line but if he stays fit there are more good times ahead 💪👏
@BNPPARIBASOPEN
Sensational match! And surely the greatest moment of
@RafaelNadal
incredible career. He really is super human 👏 🏆x 21 at Slam level.
What a start to the year!! Can’t wait to see how
@DjokerNole
responds on the Paris clay 👀
So pleased to report that young Luca has made it into qualifying for Junior
@Wimbledon
which starts on Thursday.
Going to be quite an experience whatever the outcome 😛🎾
@WimbledonChnl
So sad to hear that David Mercer has passed away. A Wonderfully versatile man his distinctive voice and commentary style lit up so many matches and an impish sense of humour made him an excellent companion. RIP
He may have lost tonight but there are genuine signs that we are going to have a lot more fun watching
@andy_murray
mixing it with the best again this year 😛👀👏
Apologies for another proud Dad alert as young Luca wins his first
@ITFTennis
title after a thrilling 3 set battle against the talented Fabio Nestola
@BradfieldCol
6-7,6-2,7-5 in almost 3 hours 💪👏
@the_LTA
@atptour
@WTA
Sad to read that
@delpotrojuan
is poised to retire. Bedevilled by injuries his forehand was magnificent, his demeanour engaging and his fighting qualities an example to us all 💪
Some weekend! The King’s coronation; King Kane at his best + now our knight in tennis armour wins his first clay court title for 7 years having looked totally out of sorts on the surface.
A further reminder that
@andy_murray
is, + always will be, tennis royalty 😛💪🏆
Whatever happens tonight this
@andy_murray
match is a magnificent (and nerve shredding) reminder of an astonishing and remarkable career that’s had his legion of fans constantly hovering between ecstasy and agony. 🇬🇧💪🎾
#genius
@WimbledonChnl
@Wimbledon
Was that the greatest
@Wimbledon
doubles final of all-time? 😄👀
Remarkable tennis from the 2 teams 👏
Championship points for both but it’s Great Britain’s Henry Patten + Harri Heliovarra of Finland who win a blockbuster 🏆
@WimbledonChnl
Stuck on a train watching the
@andy_murray
+Dan Evans score update point by point.
Would expect nothing less in terms of drama and suspense from our favourite knight of the realm 😲😄💪
Sad to hear that the supremely talented
@laurarobson5
has had to call time on her career. Glad though that she’s developing into an excellent commentator and we’ll see more of her on
@primevideosport
Spurred on by super coach Peter Fleming Luca saw off the 8th seed from Russia in 2 tight sets on a hot Dubai day to reach the last 16 💪😛
@ITFTennis
@the_LTA
Hope no one ever tries to pursue the argument for restricting 5 set matches to best of 3 again after watching that Nadal-Tsitsipas classic. Just wish all Masters 1000 finals were 5 setters too.
#AustralianOpen2021
Dan Evans remarkable day just got better!!!! He and
@nealskupski
have produced a magnificent display in a thrilling match to beat reigning Aussie Open Champions Dodig and Polasek 13-11, saving 3 match points along the way 💪👏
@ROLEXMCMASTERS
It’s now surely an absolute priority for the tennis authorities to crack down on the loop hole in the rules that allows players to take endless bathroom breaks.
It’s becoming a serious and damaging issue for the sport.

@usopen
#sortitout
Can never be happy after an Andy Murray defeat but the way

No play before 2.30 Dubai time at the earliest so Luca must go solo for the rest of the week as I head home for
@EmiratesFACup
work
@_gravitymedia
So proud of him however the week finishes + thanks so much for following our adventure 👏
@ITFTennis
It’s 20 years since a man he greatly admires, Tim Henman, won the Washington title.
To follow in his footsteps after a really tough few months
and climb to 21 in the world, is a fantastic achievement for Dan Evans 💪
Delighted to be named part of the
@primevideosport
team for 2020 with so much to look forward to over the next few months. First assignment for me is Miami next month 😎
Unbelievable 🤩 and unbearable 😱 in equal measure!! In fact, just another mesmerising day at the “office” 👀
@andy_murray
defy the odds again, as he has for much of the past 15 years 👏💪🎾 Now to be a menace to Dennis on Friday
@WimbledonChnl
@Wimbledon
And while we rightly pay tribute to

Sensing something extraordinary over the next few weeks 👏💪
