"Might be a bit of a stretch": Andy Murray hilariously teases mum Judy after announcing padel plans

Andy Murray affectionately teases his mother Judy after her venture into the Alfred Dunhill Padel Classic. The 65-years-old woman will participate in the Hurlingham event on May 15 and 16, 2024.

Judy Murray, known for coaching her sons Andy and Jamie in their early tennis careers and for her role as captain of the Great Britain Billie Jean King Cup team between 2011 and 2016, will venture into the world of padel, a growing sport with similarities to tennis and pickleball.

Recently, Judy posted on social media that she will be participating in a padel event, a sport that is gaining increasing popularity and is a variation of tennis, similar to pickleball. In padel, players compete on a small court surrounded by walls that are part of the court.

“Got talked into playing in the Alfred Dunhill Padel Classic at Hurlingham next week. The tennis court is way too big for me these days. 👵 😊” Judy Murray wrote on X.

Her son Andy Murray reposted his mother's publication: 'Think the Padel court might be a bit of a stretch too,' he joked.

"Never listen to the opinion of someone whose advice you didn’t seek……" Judy responded to her son.
