Andy Murray has not spoken to Emma Raducanu since Wimbledon snub as he prepares for Paris Olympics 2024 farewell

ANDY MURRAY admits he has not spoken to Emma Raducanu since she snubbed their Wimbledon mixed doubles combo.

Raducanu, 21, was due to play with the retiring Murray at Wimbledon in a special dream team partnership.

But on the day they were set to play, she pulled out citing wrist stiffness, 14 months after she had had surgeries on that part of the body.

The Scotsman, 37, says he is “not frustrated or bitter” by the former US Open champion’s sudden decision to prioritise singles.

Asked at the Paris Olympics if he had spoken to Raducanu since she got quite a lot of criticism, Muzza said: “No.

“I haven’t spoken to her since we chatted on the phone, when she told me she wasn’t going to play. We’ve not spoken (since)…”

Murray said: “Look, everyone is going to look out for their best interests and what it is that they do.

“I understand that and I don’t have an issue with that.”

When Judy Murray, 64, found out about the situation, she posted online that it was an “astonishing” decision – which she later claimed was just sarcasm.

Murray responded: “Remember at that moment, everyone was really emotional because it’s the end of me playing at Wimbledon.

“For everyone, I’m aware that there’s a much bigger world and a much bigger picture out there.

“But she’s my mum, so she obviously cares a lot about me, and has been a huge part of my career as well.

“In the build-up, I just had surgery where I didn’t know if I was going to get the opportunity to play.

“Everyone’s emotions were obviously running high during that time of the year.

“My mum’s obviously always going to support me and look out for my best interests. She’s been the best supporter.”

Murray’s final match at Wimbledon ended up being a Centre Court men’s doubles first-round defeat alongside brother Jamie, which was followed by a special tribute night.

Raducanu went on to lose in three sets to New Zealand qualifier Lulu Sun in the last 16.

Murray – who will retire after the doubles at Paris Olympics 2024 – said: “Getting to finish playing at Wimbledon on Centre Court with my brother was unbelievably special.

“It’s something we’d never experienced during our careers. Getting to play my last match at Wimbledon with him was really nice.

“That’s how it ended up and I’m really happy about that. I’m not frustrated or bitter about it.

“I’m happy that I got to finish playing at Wimbledon with my brother.”
