Andy Murray will receive a statue at Wimbledon, becoming only the second player after Fred Perry to be honoured with a full-body sculpture at SW19.
The monument will be unveiled in 2027 to coincide with the tournament’s 150th anniversary celebrations, recognising Murray’s historic achievements as the first British men’s singles champion since Perry’s victory in 1936.
The All England Club confirmed plans for the tribute, which will see Murray join Perry as the only players commemorated with full-body statues at the prestigious venue.
Currently, Perry stands alone with this distinction, whilst head-and-shoulder statues honour five British women champions: Kitty Godfree, Dorothy Round, Angela Mortimer, Ann Jones and Virginia Wade.
