A year ago Andy Murray went to Wimbledon as a British hopeful with the burden of ‘not since Fred Perry’ on his shoulders. He ended the 77-year hoodoo, walked away with the crown, and so this year returns with a new challenge: a rematch with destiny and the tough task of keeping his title. In the Open era only Bjorn Borg, Boris Becker, Pete Sampras and Roger Federer have been able to follow a first SW19 singles title with a second the following year. As a boxing fan, Murray was transfixed recently by another rematch which he hopes will help him. ‘I am a huge fan of boxing, so obviously I really enjoyed the Carl Froch and George Groves fights,’ he says.
