On this day in 2016, Andy Murray won a record fifth Aegon Championships title at Queen’s Club with victory over Milos Raonic.
Although he lost the first set and was 3-0 down in the second, Murray pulled off a great fightback to secure a 6-7 (5) 6-4 6-3 victory over the world number nine.
Victory also ensured his success was unparalleled at Queen’s with a record fifth title, moving him ahead of four-time winners including Roy Emerson, Boris Becker, Lleyton Hewitt, Andy Roddick, and John McEnroe.
“It’s a tournament that obviously means a lot to me,” Murray said afterwards.
“It’s been my most successful tournament by far, clearly. To be the first player to win five times is… it’s not an easy tournament to win.
“It always has a great field and the players I have beaten in the finals, a lot of times have been top players. It’s not like I have had easy finals.
“They have been top, top players, most of them top 10, some of them grand slam winners, grand slam finalists. That’s good.”
The win put the Scot in good stead ahead of preparations for Wimbledon, which was set to begin just eight days later.
Both players met again in the final as Murray won 6-4 7-6 (7-3) 7-6 (7-2) to become Wimbledon champion for a second time.
