In a career-defining moment, tennis legend Andy Murray triumphed in his 1,000th professional match 🇬🇧, defeating Australia's Alexei Popyrin (6-3, 3-6, 6-3) at London’s Queen’s Club Championships. The 37-year-old Brit, who once considered retirement after a brutal hip injury, proved he’s still got game in front of his mom Judy and roaring home fans.
Comeback King’s Gritty Win
Murray, a three-time Grand Slam champ, battled through a tense second set before clinching victory with a slick volley 🏆. This marks his first win since March, a boost ahead of Wimbledon. \"My mom told me it’s my 1,000th match—crazy!\" he laughed post-match. \"This season’s been tough, but wins like this keep me going.\"
Wimbledon Dreams & Next Opponent
With Wimbledon weeks away, Murray’s eyeing a confidence boost and a sixth Queen’s title 🎯. He’ll face Australia’s Jordan Thompson next. Meanwhile, top seed Carlos Alcaraz cruised through, while No. 2 Alex de Minaur crashed out early. Can Murray channel his 2013 Queen’s magic? Stay tuned! 💪
