Jamie and Andy Murray played together at Wimbledon's during the London 2012 Olympic Games but have not partnered during the Championships.
Wimbledon’s commences Andy Murray’s final appearance on Thursday as he teams up with brother Jamie in men’s doubles against Australian duo John Peers and Rinky Hijikata on Centre Court. The Murrays, known for their past successes including a Davis Cup triumph, cherish this opportunity as Andy, recovering from recent back surgery, bids farewell to the singles competition where he is a two-time champion.
In singles action, 32nd seed Katie Boulter faces Harriet Dart, followed by British men’s number one Jack Draper against Cameron Norrie on Court One. Both matches promise intense competition with Boulter aiming to build on recent victories and Draper acknowledging the challenge posed by Norrie’s impressive form. Meanwhile, on Centre Court, wildcard Jacob Fearnley faces a daunting task against seven-time champion Novak Djokovic.
Fearnley, relatively unknown until his recent successes on the British grass courts, earned his place with a wildcard after winning the Nottingham Open Challenger title. Despite his unfamiliarity with Jacob Fearnley, Novak Djokovic is diligently preparing for Wimbledon’s encounter. The 24-time major champion acknowledges Fearnley’s aggressive game style and recent successes, including winning the Nottingham Open and climbing into the world’s top 300.
Djokovic’s thorough preparation includes studying video footage and strategizing with his team to handle the challenge posed by the talented young Scot.
