Andy Murray has admitted he is puzzled by a new Wimbledon poster, describing it as "strange" and raising questions about its composition. It comes after members of his own family criticised the poster for omitting the two-time Wimbledon champion entirely, with some even labeling it "appalling".
The poster featured promising young players Jannik Sinner and Carlos Alcaraz alongside tennis legends, but was overshadowed the absence of Murray, who famously ended Britain's 77-year wait for a male singles champion in 2013. In a lighthearted manner, Murray jokingly referred to the poster as a "disaster" and expressed his concerns about the prominence given to male players over women, reports the Mirror.
"It's a disaster. I don't think the problem with the poster was me not being on it. Yeah, in part it is having so many men in front of the women," Murray commented. "But what was slightly strange is the players that are obviously on the poster are ones that have obviously had incredible careers and have been unbelievably successful at Wimbledon - some of the greatest players of all time.
