Andy Murray revealed that he has not spoken a word to Emma Raducanu since she took what his mother Judy described as an “astonishing” decision to pull out of the Wimbledon mixed doubles and end his All England Club career.
The two-time Wimbledon and Olympic champion, who plays his last ever match at these Paris Games, responded with a distinct froideur as soon as he was pressed on whether he had communicated with Raducanu during the two-and-a-half weeks since her decision to withdraw. “No, I haven’t spoken to her since we chatted on the phone, when she told me she wasn’t going to play,” he said. “We’ve not spoken.”
His mother had stoked the fires when she described Raducanu’s actions, ending his Wimbledon career with a single Instagram post, as “astonishing”. Judy later tried to insist that her remark had been meant sarcastically, but Murray himself gave no indication the message had been misconstrued.
