That this House notes with sadness the announcement by Andy Murray that he is likely to retire from competitive tennis in 2019 due to injury; pays tribute to his legacy as one of the leading male tennis players throughout the past decade as a three-time Grand Slam winner, double Olympic champion, Davis Cup winner and former world No. 1; acknowledges that these achievements occurred while playing against some of the toughest opponents in the sport's history; appreciates his wider achievements in combating sexism and encouraging young talent within the sport; and wishes him and his family all the best for the future.
