Before Andy Murray ever won a major title, before he ever won Wimbledon, before he ever reached world number 1, he won an Olympic Gold Medal in front of a home crowd on the Centre Court at Wimbledon... 14 years ago today. 🥲❤️

That tournament he was absolutely flawless. He beat Djokovic and Federer back to back without dropping a set.

That gave him the belief he could win Wimbledon. Epic match.

Was so pleased for him,it was a rare opportunity for immediate revenge-a few weeks earlier,on that same court,he was comprehensively outplayed by the same opponent (Federer) in the Wimbledon final.But in the Olympic final,I recall that Murray battered him.

And that was a hell of a masterclass. If the roof wasn’t closed for that Wimby final in 2012 against RF, maybe, just maybe, the outcome could have been different

After Federer and Del Protro went to war for like 4.5 hours.. still a good win for Andy

I was there , amazing day. Absolutely knackered after doing the overnight megabus from Glasgow to avoid the insane hotel prices but a memory to last forever.

Murray is the king of Olympics in the Big 4

Not British. I cried that day. I wanted it so badly for him. He’s always been a class act.

It was absolutely brilliant! I was very lucky to be there and to have witnessed it Something I’ll never forget

Absolutely dismantled Roger that day 💪🏻

That was the one that set him on the road and gave him the belief he could actually do it!

Best bloody birthday present I ever had!!!

Thanks so much for posting this, Scott. Remains my favourite ever GB gold medal in the Olympics. 🥲♥️

Great memory of a fantastic achievement. 😆

I watched this 2012 was his year, beat Nole Wimby, Olympics,Fed and US Nole

I remember that I will never ever forget it 🥰

Legend. I miss him

Yep saw it LIVE and wasn't even into tennis back then 👀

To be a champion in that company is really special.

And just 3 weeks after his heartbreaking loss to the very same Roger Federer on the same court in the Wimbledon final. Incredible mental strength to do that!

And he beat Roger! 💪🏻

2012 was a different lifetime man 😮‍💨

Fourteen years after that Olympic gold, Murray holds a 57% career win rate at ATP #44.

I admire Federer the most, but Murray deserved this he played brilliant that day.

Happier times 😊

That gave him the belief to kick on and have the best period of his career. After the tears at Wimbledon it was the perfect result

Not his home crowd.

Imo, that was the win that made him truly believe he could win a Slam. He won the US Open just a few weeks later.

What a weekend that was for the UK, great times compared to today's utter nonsense of a country

i was so happy for him 😭

Amazing. That must’ve boosted his confidence.

Miss watching Andy! What a joy those tears were

Didn’t he famously support Scottish independence?

That was a great moment!!!

And the won the US Open a couple of months later 👌
