"I think he's a true champion in everything he does": Andy Murray heavily praised by compatriot Katie Boulter
ATPThursday, 23 November 2023 at 11:00
British current world number one Katie Boulter has named three-time
Grand Slam winner Andy Murray as a ‘true champion’.
The 36-year-old is one of the most successful player in the
Britain’s tennis history, having won multiple major titles. It was because of
this reason he became the world number one in November 2016.
Boulter was recently quoted in a report where she expressed
admiration for Murray and revealed how she always looks up to him for
motivation because of his passion for the game.
“He’s been someone who I have watched throughout my whole
entire career,” he said. “I think he’s a true champion in everything that he
does and I’ve got massive respect for what he does on a daily basis.
“If I needed some advice he’d definitely be someone I would
go to. He’s been on tour for a very long time and I’m sure he’s got a lot of
wisdom over the many, many years so he is someone who I would for sure be going
to for advice.
“His legacy is everything. He is the epitome of tennis in
his passion, his love for the game, it’s like no other. You don’t see that
often on tour and what he’s been able to accomplish.
“Growing up it was a true rollercoaster to watch, but to see
him come out the other end and to see him achieve his goals, it really makes
people and kids like me back then to strive for what they want and to be able
to achieve what he achieved.
“To see him here at the NTC day in, day out still grafting,
still working so hard it is truly inspiring and it’s fun to watch in a way that
it gives me questions in my head as to whether I should be doing certain things
or whether I’ll be playing in 10 years’ time or whether I’ll be playing in 20
years’ time. I don’t know, so it’s nice to see a true champion at work – that’s
for sure.”
