After a bumpy start into the 2021 season, which after reaching the finals at the ATP Challenger event in Bella, Italy, only resulted in a single match success in Rotterdam for Andy Murray, the Briton now wants to take part in the ATP World Tour 500 tournament in the historic Queen's Club about to pick up speed in London. The two-time Wimbledon champion was able to hit the renowned preparatory tournament five times - most recently in 2016.
Even the biggest fan of the silent Scotsman will not dare to dream that he could succeed in doing this in 2021. Nevertheless, Murray is happy that the organizers have given him one of the coveted wild cards. “The tournament at Queen's has always meant a lot to me. Here I won my first ATP match. I won the singles in Queen's more often than any other tournament in my career and I will never forget the double title in 2019, "said the 34-year-old after the free ticket became known.
If you don't have such a good memory as Murray: In 2019, after a long break from injury, the Briton played his first ATP tournament at the Queen's Club and won the double competition there with his partner Feliciano Lopez.
