A statue at Wimbledon would be fitting but there needs to be a meaningful, permanent legacy in Scotland for Andy Murray.

100% @JudyMurray has produced two world number ones and grand slam champions. Scotland has to have a community tennis centre to mark this incredible legacy

She’s right. That makes sense.

Oh dear, he was just a tennis player. Who by the way, got hammered by 3 other legends in almost every tournament he played in. Let's not go over the top here.

All other Slams have their courts named. Why not Wimbledon? Andy Murray centre court.

Wonderful accolade! And fundamentally spot on!

A statue in Scotland maybe, but not Wimbledon. There are many others more deserving of that honour.

Virginia Moran2 years ago

What for? He only won it twice. Roger won eight times, Martina won it nine times. If there's any statues or court naming going on it should go to the most successful players.

Spot on with the legacy Billie! 👊 🎾

The joy Andy Murray gave an entire country on that sacred day of July 2013? It will never be replicated. After that, he was always going to get his statue at Wimbledon. And he deserves it beyond measure.

No one *needs* a Defender Octa. But the world would be a very dull place if there weren’t people who thought fitting an M5’s twin-turbo V8 into a 2.5 ton off-roader would make for great banter😭

I wish this didn't need to be said, but obviously it does - and it needs to be said across the world clearly and loudly - making “a whole civilisation die tonight" would be a crime, for which there can be no excuse.
