PARIS — Two-time Olympic men's singles champion Andy Murray said he will end his career next week at the Paris Games. The 37-year-old Murray wrote on X that he "arrived in Paris for my last ever tennis tournament." Tennis at the Paris Olympics starts Saturday on the clay courts at Roland Garros. The 37-year-old won his gold medals at Wimbledon during the 2012 London Olympics and retained this title in Rio de Janeiro four years later. Murray says competing for Britain was "by far the most memorable weeks of my career." Murray had hip replacement surgery in 2019 and several subsequent injuries.
