5 Tennis players who were coached by their mothers

#2 Andy and Jamie Murray

Judy Murray has played a huge role in developing both of her sons’ careers

Both Andy and Jamie Murray have been one of the world’s best at present in singles and doubles respectively. Andy has so far won a total of three Grand Slams and was recently knighted following his ascent to the top of the ATP rankings. Jamie has been ranked World No.1 in Doubles and is currently ranked 4^th in the same. He has won a total of three Grand Slam Doubles titles, two in Men’s Doubles, and one in Mixed Doubles.

One person who has been instrumental to the success of both players is their mother Judy Murray. Judy herself was a tennis player and had won a total of 64 titles in Scotland. She could have turned professional in 1976 but decided not to do so because she was homesick and was robbed in Barcelona.

However, she has gone on to coach both her sons who have become great tennis players in their own right. One of the greatest tennis parent-cum-coach indeed.
