Scottish tennis legend Sir Andy Murray is set to go to head to head with Greek tennis player Stefanos Tsitsipas on Thursday.
The 36 year-old sportsman will be playing in the second round in the centre court in a bid to win Wimbledon for the third time in the men's single.
He made his professional debut back in 2005 and despite a major hip operation, he is far from ready to call it quits on the court.

Over the last 17 years, Murray has made quite the name for himself in the sports industry, and as well as gaining a mass amount of supporters around Scotland and the UK, his hometown of Dunblane cheers him on at each tournament.
While he mostly keeps out of the limelight, his tennis career has earned him a pretty penny with The Sun reporting that Murray's net worth is around £130million ($165m) while his career earnings reportedly exceed a staggering £45.3m ($60m).
A lot of money is to be had in these games. After beating Novak Djokovic in the final of the US Open in 2012, Wales Online reports that Murray bagged £1.1m ($1.9m) and picked up £2m in 2013 after defeating Djokovic in the 2013 Wimbledon final.
In 2016 alone, Murray made it to three Grand Slam finals, won 78 matches and picked up nine titles in total. It was a year in which he earned £10.8m in prize money.
Murray also has non-tennis business interests. He is the sole shareholder of his company 77 Management, formerly Parched Investments, and owns a 15-room hotel called the Cromlix House Hotel near his hometown of Dunblane, which he bought for almost £2m 10 years ago.
In 2019, the Daily Mail reported that his business empire was worth more than £26m, while Murray also has a string of lucrative sponsorship deals.
Andy Murray will be playing Stefanos Tsitsipas at 4.45pm on Thursday July 6.
