Andy Murray's Wild Card Comeback at Roland Garros

Three-time Grand Slam champion Andy Murray, alongside Daniel Evans, has been granted a wild card for the doubles at the French Open. This marks the first non-French pair to receive such an honor in over 20 years. Murray, recovering from an ankle injury, is also set to compete in singles, likely making his final appearance at the clay-court major.

Three-time Grand Slam champion Andy Murray and Daniel Evans have been granted a wild card to play together in doubles at the French Open, organizers said.

They are the first non-French pair to be awarded a wild card into the men's doubles at Roland Garros in more than 20 years.

Murray, a former No. 1, has recovered from an ankle injury and will also feature in the singles main draw for what is expected to be his final appearance at the clay-court major.

The 37-year-old Murray has played sparingly since having hip surgery in 2018 and has said he will probably retire after this summer. He is a two-time Wimbledon and Olympic champion and is hoping to compete for Britain again at the Paris Games.

Murray lost in straight sets to Yannick Hanfmann in the first round of the Geneva Open this week.

Murray is returning to the French Open for the first time since losing in the first round four years ago. His best result at Roland Garros was runner-up in 2016.
