The 36-year-old has become the eighth man to register 200 grand slam victories.
Andy Murray has become the eighth man to register 200 grand slam victories in the Open era.
That trio are more than 80 wins clear of anyone else, with Jimmy Connors in fourth , ahead of Andre Agassi and Murray’s coach Ivan Lendl . However, the 36-year-old also thrives when playing the role of pantomime villain and has a remarkable record of 18 victories from 19 matches against homegrown players in the Australian, French and US Opens.
Murray has had the privilege and misfortune of playing in a golden era of men’s tennis, with all but one of his finals having been played against Federer or Djokovic. Shortly after turning 30, Murray – ranked number one in the world at the time – lost to Sam Querrey in the quarter-finals of Wimbledon 2017 and proceeded to sit out the next four grand slams while recovering from surgery.
