He became the first British player to win a Grand Slam Singles title since 1977 when beating Novak Djokovic in the 2012 US Open Final, and the first British man since Fred Perry in 1936 to win a Grand Slam singles title. In 2016 Murray became the first British man to win two Wimbledon Singles Titles since the great Fred Perry, and the first Scot to win a Wimbledon singles title since Harold Mahony in 1896. The first Wimbledon singles title won in 2013 against Novak Djokovic in a straight sets match that lasted over three hours. And again on the 10th July 2016 as 2nd seed against Milos Raonic, Murray won in straight sets, having defeated Liam Broady, Lu Yen-hsun, John Millman and Nick Kyrgios in the first four rounds, then defeating the 12th seed Jo-Wilfired Tsonga in the quarter finals in five sets and the 10th seed Tomas Berdych in the semi-finals in straight sets. This Wimbledon crown was his 3rd title of the season and his 38th career Tour title. Andy Murray's management company 77 Sports Management has confirmed by letter offered in this lot that Andy wore two shirts on court during the 2016 Final, this being one of them that was purchased by the current consignor at a Charity Auction. The other shirt was donated by Andy Murray to the Wimbledon Lawn Tennis Museum.
