Former World No. 1 Andy Murray was recently seen at the Wimbledon Championships 2021. He made a return at this event after four years of absence. Although his journey did not last long, he certainly thrilled fans with his presence. 

During his stint at the Championships, Andy Murray featured in an advertisement commercial. In the clip, he can be seen speaking about the importance of receiving support but at the right time.

As the clip begins, Andy states, “One of the favorite things about playing at Wimbledon is the support I get from the crowds. Take this audio clip for example, “Cmon Andy”. After a point, it works perfectly. But if used at the wrong moment it can distract even the most focussed of players. So there you have it, show your support at the right time and that way players like me won’t be interrupted.”
