Murray considering playing Wimbledon doubles with brother

Three-times Grand Slam champion Andy Murray said he may play the men’s doubles alongside brother Jamie at next month’s Wimbledon Championships.

The 37-year-old Scot has won two Wimbledon singles titles, while his brother is a two-times Wimbledon mixed doubles champion.

The Murray brothers also played together at the 2016 Rio Olympics, and were a prolific partnership when Britain won the Davis Cup in 2015.

“I may play doubles at Wimbledon, yeah. I’m not 100 per cent sure yet,” Murray told reporters after he and Daniel Evans suffered a 7-6(6) 7-6(3) first-round loss to Thiago Seyboth Wild and Sebastian Baez at the French Open.

“My brother doesn’t have a partner for Wimbledon currently. We have spoken a little bit about it. So may do that, but not 100 per cent sure yet.

“(We will decide) ahead of time. I mean obviously Jamie could also get a good partner, as well. We’ll see what happens, but yeah, we’ll probably decide in the next few days.”
