Mumbai, November 13: Retired tennis star Andy Murray will talk about his pro career during a four-show theater tour in Scotland and England in June 2025, his management group announced Tuesday. Murray won three Grand Slam titles — two at Wimbledon and one at the U.S. Open — along with two Olympic singles gold medals, and he finished 2016 at No. 1 in the ATP rankings. His final match was a loss in the doubles quarterfinals of the Paris Olympics on Aug. 1.

“After I retired this summer, I wanted to try some different things. I don't think a tennis player has done anything like this before, so it felt like a great challenge for me,” the 37-year-old Murray said. "I haven't stepped on a tennis court for a long time, so hopefully my fans will enjoy seeing me in this new setting.”
