While Djokovic was winning Roland Garros, Murray was winning silverware in the Surbiton Challenger, which was his first grass title in seven years.The two-time Wimbledon champion commented on Djokovic's success, saying he "made it look easy.""I'm not saying he makes it look easy but he makes it look a lot more easy than it should," Murray said.The 36-year-old remembered the 2026 French Open final, in which Djokovic defeated him in four sets, 6-3, 1-6, 2-6, 4-6, jokingly adding:"I'm happy for him, he deserves it. When he beat me in the final of the (2016) French Open he lost motivation so maybe he can take his eye off the ball for the next few weeks heading into Wimbledon!"
