Murray’s forgetful nature is unknown to none. He lost his wedding ring last year while competing in Indian Wells, which he eventually collected from the lost and found department of the hotel. However, this time, he is not at fault.

Andy Murray Lost His Racket

Thereafter, the Brit requested Iberian airlines to help him retrieve his goods. Although his bags might not be as important as his wedding ring, they are vital for upcoming tournament. Therefore, he wrote, “what number or email should passengers use to contact for missing baggage? I need my tennis rackets back.”

After receiving his equipments back, the Brit has started practising for the Mutua Madrid Open 2022. Speaking of Madrid Open, Andy recently suffered a great deal of backlash for taking a wild card entry to the main draws of the event.
