Andy’s career ended at the Olympics in Paris.

British tennis superstar Andy Murray’s legendary career has finished with a 2-0 set defeat in the Olympic men’s doubles ¼ finals.

Andy and Dan Evans were defeated 6-2 6-4 by American 3rd-seeds Taylor Fritz and Tommy Paul.

Murray (37) announced before the Olympics that it would be his final tournament before retiring from tennis.

After a long hug with his teammate at the baseline, Andy was visibly emotional with the noise of the Roland-Garros supporters showing their gratitude to the legendary player.

Dan encouraged Andy to go into the centre of the court for 1 final time as he waved to all sides before leaving the complex.

A 5th Olympics is the final episode of the career of Murray, who triumphed with 3 Grand Slams and was ATP world number 1.

After a campaign disrupted by problems, including procedure to remove a back cyst just over a month ago, it was testament to the perseverance Murray has always had that he even competed in Paris.
