Unfortunately, his swing only hit a small corner of the ball, resulting in the ball sliding a few feet to the right and remaining in the bunker.The DP World Tour's official X account even posted the scene, showing Murray disappointed and looking to the ground after the shot. The X post also featured a commentary that highlighted the awkward situation, which stated,"Oh Andy 😅"Andy Murray has actively worked to enhance his talents, and he currently also has a massive deal with Callaway for all of his equipment.

Murray's remark, which was posted on the DP World Tour's official website, illustrates how excited he is to play golf full-time. During the interview, he even compared the St. Andrews golf course to Wimbledon's center court, suggesting that they are not too different.Murray stated,"I’m really looking forward to this. It’s very special to be able to play in a full-blown professional event, and for a Scot like me to be able to do it in Scotland at such a unique location makes it even more exceptional. In many ways, the Old Course at St Andrews is very like Centre Court at Wimbledon. They both have the same historic feel and atmosphere that just doesn’t exist in many sporting venues around the world. It will be a pleasure to be able to savour that."Andy Murray began the tournament with a handicap of 3, which means he is expected to take three strokes over par on average.
