1. Winning the Wimbledon mixed doubles title
In 2007, Murray claimed the first Grand Slam title of his career at Wimbledon - one that firmly announced his arrival on the biggest stage.
Teaming up with Serbian star Jelena Jankovic, one of the leading singles players on the WTA Tour at the time, the unseeded pair quickly found chemistry. Despite having never played together before, they battled through a series of tight matches, winning four of their first five in deciding sets to reach the final.
Up against Jonas Björkman and Alicia Molik, Murray and Jankovic delivered a composed and confident performance, winning 6–4, 3–6, 6–1 to lift the title.
At just 21-years-old, Murray became the first British player to win a senior Wimbledon title in 20 years - a breakthrough moment that laid the foundation for the success that followed.
2. Legendary semi-final win before Davis Cup triumph

While Great Britain’s Davis Cup triumph in 2015 stands as one of the nation’s greatest tennis achievements, it was the semi-final victory that truly defined Murray’s instrumental contribution.
With the tie level at 1–1 against Australia in Glasgow, Jamie and Andy Murray teamed up to face Lleyton Hewitt and Sam Groth in a crucial doubles rubber.
What followed was a gripping five-set battle lasting over four hours, packed with momentum swings and relentless tension. The British brothers eventually edged through 4–6, 6–3, 6–4, 6–7(6), 6–4 in one of the most dramatic Davis Cup matches in recent memory.
They would go on to play another pivotal role in the final, helping Great Britain secure their first Davis Cup title since 1936 and etching their names into British sporting history.
3. First Grand Slam men’s doubles title in Melbourne

After years of success in mixed doubles, Murray finally secured his first men’s doubles Grand Slam title at the 2016 Australian Open.
Partnering Brazilian Bruno Soares, the duo made an immediate impact. In just their third tournament together, they produced a dominant run to the final, dropping only one set along the way.
Having previously fallen short in Grand Slam finals, Murray seized his opportunity this time. He and Soares came from a set down to defeat Daniel Nestor and Radek Stepanek 2–6, 6–4, 7–5 in a high-quality final.
The victory marked a defining milestone in his career and made him the first Briton in over 80 years to win the Australian Open men’s doubles title.
4. Reaching world No.1

Later that same year, Murray reached the pinnacle of the doubles game by becoming world No.1.
Following Marcelo Melo’s early exit at the Miami Open, Murray rose to the top of the ATP doubles rankings - becoming the first British man to achieve the feat in the modern era.
He and Soares went on to underline their dominance by winning the US Open and finishing the season as the year-end No.1 team.
In a remarkable year for British tennis, Jamie and Andy Murray also made history as the first brothers to hold the world No.1 ranking in doubles and singles respectively at the same time.
5. Becoming the King of Queen’s

Success on home soil was a recurring theme throughout Murray’s career, and his triumph at Queen’s Club in 2017 was another standout moment.
Having previously finished as a runner-up at the event, he returned alongside Bruno Soares to go one step further. The pair faced a demanding schedule, playing both the semi-final and final on the same day.
They rose to the challenge impressively, defeating Julien Benneteau and Edouard Roger-Vasselin 6–2, 6–3 in the final to claim the title.
It was a significant achievement for British doubles tennis and another example of Murray’s consistency at the highest level. He would later return to Queen’s in a new role, becoming Tournament Director in 2023 - further cementing his lasting impact on the event.
