- Andy Murray continues to enjoy new adventures since retiring from tennis
- The Grand Slam legend hit the golf course with Dan Evans on Wednesday
- Murray and Evans were previously defeated in the men’s doubles at the Olympic Games
Andy Murray continues to enjoy his retirement after hitting the golf course with his former Team GB doubles partner Dan Evans.
The Scot made his final professional tennis appearance with Evans last week when the duo were knocked out in the quarter-finals of the Olympic men’s doubles event.
Murray enjoyed a glittering career on the court, becoming the first Briton in 77 years to win the men’s Wimbledon title. He finished his tennis career with three Grand Slam titles and Olympic honours to his name.
Since then he has been busy attending other Olympic events with his daughter, socialising with the stars of Team GB and enjoying the luxuries that come with retirement.
One such luxury is golf. On Wednesday, they spent an afternoon with Evans, with the former teammates testing their skills against each other in another sport.

Murray shared an update to his 2 million-plus Instagram followers by posting a selfie Evans had taken, with the legendary tennis star practicing his swing in the background.
Murray posted the following text in his update on social media: ‘Partners last week… opponents today’, but it is still unclear who emerged victorious in the duels on the golf course.

Evans and Murray had hoped their Olympic journey would result in an Olympic medal, after heroically overcoming previous draws but ultimately being defeated by Team USA.
Both were emotional as the curtain fell on Murray’s career, with Evans left sobbing at Roland Garros and the Scot later admitting he was “happy” to finally leave tennis behind.
“I think it’s just nice to have that kind of closure and also go to the Olympics,” Murray told Sky Sports.
“It was sad to leave the pitch for the last time, but ultimately I’m happy that I was able to finish my career on my own terms, on the pitch and in front of a fantastic crowd,” he added.
