My Take

I have a soft spot for doubles specialists, and Jamie Murray is exactly why. Reaching world number one in doubles and stacking up seven major titles, five in mixed and two in men's, is the kind of achievement that often gets overshadowed by the singles spotlight, which in his case happens to be his younger brother Andy. I think there's something admirable about carving out elite success on your own terms rather than chasing the same lane. The OBE and the Davis Cup win feel earned. To me, standing at 191 centimetres and owning the net for two decades, he's quietly one of Britain's most accomplished tennis players.

Overview

James Robert Murray (born 13 February 1986) is a British former professional tennis player. A doubles specialist, he is a seven-time major doubles champion (five in mixed doubles and two in men's doubles), a Davis Cup winner, and a former doubles world No. 1. He is the older brother of former singles world No. 1, Andy Murray. Murray had an early career partnership with Eric Butorac, winning three titles in 2007.
