Andy Murray to Compete in Fifth Olympics for Team GB Despite Pending Retirement

Andy Murray has been selected to represent Team GB in his fifth Olympics at the Paris 2024 Games, despite his low singles ranking of 97, due to his status as a former Grand Slam winner and double Olympic gold medallist. Joining him in the men's singles are Jack Draper, Cameron Norrie, and Dan Evans, with Katie Boulter as the sole female participant. In the men's doubles, Joe Salisbury and Neal Skupski will compete, and Murray and Evans have been nominated for an additional doubles spot pending ITF approval. Emma Raducanu, the 2021 US Open champion, declined an ITF place due to recent injury recovery and the multiple changes in playing surfaces. The tournament will take place at Roland Garros on clay, and Murray's selection marks a significant moment as he has announced plans to retire later this year.
