Andy Murray is a player who threatened to break the hold of the big three in the ATP. He has won three grand slams and seemed to be on his way to win more, but injury struck him down hard. The Briton was injured first in 2016 and then kept he continued to struggle with more injuries. He eventually got an arthroscopic hip surgery but kept persevering in the sport.
After slowly recovering, Murray has shown signs of his former athletic ability, which has drawn a creative nickname out of a rising British star in a tournament organized by the former coach of Serena Williams.
The Ultimate Tennis Showdown is a tournament created by Patrick Mouratoglou, Serena Williams’ former coach. It follows a different format from normal tennis and takes place in many places. One event took place in London, which was eventually won by rising British star Jack Draper. Before his win, Draper talked about Andy Murray on the Tennis Weekly podcast and came up with a creative nickname for him.
As he talked about Murray’s athletic ability on the podcast, he connected him to a cat while calling him a superhero. “I think he’s like a cat. He’s got a few different lives and he’s got nine lives. Yeah, seems like it seems like obviously he’s playing with a metal hip. Andy Murray. No, no. I like iron. Yeah. Yeah. Iron Man.” Murray would be delighted to hear this nickname, as he has always been eager to improve, despite his injuries.
