Since Andy Murray ended his impressive tennis career, the Scottish star has found little time for relaxation. The three-time Grand Slam winner and former challenger to the Big Three – Roger Federer, Rafael Nadal and Novak Djokovic – has dedicated himself to various projects, many of which are off the court.
A brief foray into coaching and a canceled commercial
A surprising step in Murray’s post-tennis career was his entry into the coaching world. In the run-up to the Australian Open 2025, he accepted Novak Djokovic’s offer to coach him. The two former rivals began working together with the aim of helping Djokovic achieve further Grand Slam success. In interviews, Murray appeared open to working with Djokovic as long as he gave his best. But after just one Grand Slam – the two were not allowed to work together again – Murray declared the end of this short partnership in May 2025. “Thanks to Novak for this incredible opportunity,” he said, wishing him all the best for the season.
During his post-tennis years, Murray also toured the country with a live tour called “Centre Stage,” where he shared insights into his career. The tour took him to Glasgow, Edinburgh and London, among other places, where he welcomed not only his family but also tennis legend John McEnroe as a guest. His love life also remains in focus: his wife Kim and their four children are an important source of support for him in his new life.
However, a commercial featuring Murray for Uber Eats had to be pulled following complaints. The advert, which aired during the Australian Open, showed a scene in which Murray is harassed by suppliers before dramatically escaping out a window. The Ad Standards Community Panel ruled that the spot depicted “violent and threatening behavior” and therefore needed to be taken down. Murray was disappointed by this, but admitted he understood viewers’ concerns.
Focus on golf and family bonds
Away from the stage and controversial advertising, Murray has also continued to pursue his passion for golf. As a handicap 7 player, he took part in the BMW PGA Championship and won the BTJA Mike Dickson Golf Day, a tournament that was founded in honor of the late tennis journalist Mike Dickson. In an interview, Murray explained that he experiences the golf course differently than the tennis court because the nerves are “completely different” but he enjoys the game.
He said about his wife Kim in an interview that she had always been a reliable support in his life. “She made her own sacrifices to strengthen our relationship,” he stressed, addressing the challenge of being in the spotlight and constantly being judged in the media. However, Kim has always stayed out of the public eye, making her “indispensable” to the family. Despite the family’s media exposure, Murray is proud of their relationship and the path they are on together.
