Tennis legend Andy Murray has begun his Wimbledon farewell as stepped out on Centre Court for his doubles match with his brother Jamie this evening.

His wife, Kim Sears, two of his children and his mother and father Judy and William Murray, were spotted watching on from the players' box.

The two-time-former champion was forced to bow out of the singles on Monday with a back injury to the heartbreak of scores of British fans.

But the Scots star - who underwent spinal surgery just 12 days ago- has committed to playing in both doubles competitions, teaming up with Emma Raducanu in the mixed.

Andy and Jamie are up against Australian pair John Peers and Rinky Hijikata tonight and it is unlikely to be an easy match.
