Andy Murray welcomes investment in wake of Emma Raducanu’s success
The Guardian says Andy Murray has stressed the importance of continuing to capitalise on Emma Raducanu’s success in the wake of the announcement last weekend of a £22m government investment in public tennis courts.
“It’s very positive,” said Murray, speaking in his pre-tournament press conference at the BNP Paribas Open in Indian Wells. “I knew that [the Lawn Tennis Association] was going to the government to try to get some money to refurbish a lot of the park courts. I recorded a little video for it. It’s great for tennis anyway if the government supports this. I have spoken about the importance of capitalising on the success of what Emma has done and will likely do in the future.”
