Tennis fans were sad to see Scottish champion Andy Murray retire from professional tennis in 2024. No one knew what his next move could be. Being present for his four children at home was a priority. Recently, he showed off his Halloween costume, demonstrating his commitment (and sense of humor) to his kids.

Andy Murray is not clowning around indefinitely. On Tuesday, he announced his first post-tennis project on social media, and fans could not be more excited.
What Will Andy Muray Do Next?
It turns out Andy Murray will be at Wimbledon next summer, just in a different way. Andy Murray is taking to the stage in a Summer 2025 theatre tour, accompanied by sports broadcaster Andrew Cotter. Glasgow, Edinburgh, Hammersmith, and Wimbledon are the four stops planned so far. The structure and content of the shows are yet to be learned, but it appears that it could be an open forum of questions and answers with the audience facilitated by Cotter.

Fans are excited about Murray’s summer tour. Some have begged him to add cities so they can see him.
Murray is a talented person whose future is wide open. He has already dabbled in golf following the footsteps of most retired people.
What Else Might Murray Do?
This is just the beginning of Murray’s future endeavors. With children at home, he will keep them a top priority. At some point, people believe that Murray will rejoin tennis potentially as a coach.
Given his affinity for the WTA Tour and diehard support of women’s tennis, Murray could follow in Goran Ivanisevic‘s footsteps as an ATP Grand Slam Champion coaching a WTA player.
