“The wedding ring and the shoes have come home! Ex-world tennis number One Andy Murray thanked his Instagram followers Thursday, shortly after he launched a search notice to find the personal belongings he had left under his car.
“They still stink so much”, he said in his message posted on the social network about his tennis, “but luck smiles on me again”.
The 34-year-old Briton had previously publicly asked to be returned his wedding ring, which disappeared along with his shoes that he had left to dry under his car during the night between two training sessions for the Indian Wells tournament in California.
Murray had hung the wedding ring on the lace of one of the shoes deposited under his car, in front of his hotel, the previous night, the time they dry, “because they smelled very strongly”, he confessed. “I actually tie my wedding ring to my tennis shoes before playing because I can’t play with it by hand.”
The next morning, the shoe and wedding ring were gone. The 34-year-old, three-time Grand Slam winner (2 Wimbledon, 1 US Open) therefore called on social networks to at least find his alliance.
“I’m going to be scolded at home (by my wife),” the Scotsman also joked on his Instagram account on the night of Wednesday to Thursday by launching his call.
“I had to go to the nearest store to buy shoes that are a little different from my usual shoes, which is not ideal”, also argued the player who left the World Top 100 after several injuries.
