Jamie Murray keen for Wimbledon doubles partnership with brother Andy
Elder brother Jamie admits ‘maybe now is the only opportunity to do it’ as Andy prepares for his farewell from tennis.
Jamie Murray is eager for one last doubles hurrah with brother Andy at Wimbledon.
The Scottish siblings are set to reprise their Davis Cup-winning partnership on home turf this summer.
Two-time Wimbledon singles champion Andy revealed last week that he hoped to team up with his older brother at what is likely to be his final appearance at SW19.
“I mean it’s something that we probably wanted to do at some point in our career, and maybe now is the only opportunity to do it.
“So maybe it’s a case of now or never, but yeah, we’ll see. We need to figure out what’s going to happen first and then go from there.
“We’ve had some amazing experiences on the court together, particularly in Davis Cup and yeah, I think for us to be able to play at Wimbledon would be really cool and get some good crowd support.”
Jamie Murray reached the Wimbledon men’s doubles final with John Peers in 2015 and has won the mixed title twice, with Jelena Jankovic in 2007 and Martina Hingis in 2017. Andy won Olympic mixed doubles silver with Laura Robson at London 2012.
