Former World No. 1 Andy Murray has been one of the key players on the Tour for over a decade. Over the years, he has developed a habit of playing in the doubles category too. He has partnered with various players and has enjoyed decent success in these events.
Recently, Andy Murray’s name was involved in a conversation. Spanish tennis player Feliciano Lopez was answer questions and the one question that caught my attention was when Feli was asked to name his three partners with who he has won an ATP doubles title.

Interestingly, Lopez got the first two names right, compatriot Fernando Verdasco and Marc Lopez. However, he was unable to guess the third player and after getting a clue that he was Scottish, he then guessed it. He went on to say, “Oh f… How can I miss that one?”
