Andy Murray has announced he will retire from tennis after the 2024 Paris Olympics.
The 37-year-old is planning to play in the singles and doubles in Paris, in what will be his fifth Games.
“Arrived in Paris for my last ever tennis tournament,” Murray wrote on X.
“Competing for Team GB has been by far the most memorable weeks of my career and I’m extremely proud to get to do it one final time!”
The Scot’s first Games appearance was in Beijing in 2008, when he lost in straight sets to Lu Yen-Hsun in the first round.
Murray put the disappointment of a Wimbledon final defeat to Roger Federer weeks earlier by beating the Swiss at London 2012 to win gold.
Murray became the first male tennis player to win two Olympic singles titles four years later when he beat Argentina’s Juan Martin del Potro in Rio.
