“ANDY MURRY CHAMPION: His Full Extraordinary Story Including the Epic Olympic Gold and US Open Victory”

By Mark Hodgkinson, formerly Tennis Correspondent for The Daily Telegraph.

After so many near misses, Murray has at last achieved not one but two major on-court triumphs, first on Centre Court by beating Federer to win the Olympic Gold Medal in August and then at last capturing that elusive Grand Slam title in en epic 5-sets match against Djokovic at the US Open in September. British tennis fans have for so long supported the Scotsman in his trials and tribulations as being for a while the “nearly-man”. That role is firmly behind him now and, by dint of sheer hard work and perseverance, he has clawed his way firmly into the top three with every chance in 2013 of becoming the top player in the world, as Nadal and Federer show signs of wear and tear. But Djokovic looms large!

The author has been close to Murray for many years and has established a good relationship which has allowed him to write this perceptive look at the player from his earliest days, from being coached by his mother through to the time when he added Ivan Lendl to his entourage. This is certainly the most comprehensive study so far on the intense player that is Andy Murray.
