Andy Murray's impressive tennis career, which saw him become of the country's greatest sporting icons, has come to an end.

He and Team GB partner Dan Evans were beaten by US duo Taylor Fritz and Tommy Paul at Paris 2024. Murray gathered in an incredible fortune, raking in a £50million prize pot during his career, reports the Daily Record.

Endorsement deals, sponsorship partnerships and more has contributed to his success. Over the years, he's also partnered with other major brands as Amazon Prime Video, Standard Life and American Express.

Celebrity Net Worth estimates that these deals and winnings have contributed to a net worth of around £85million. However, some sources suggest it could be closer to £100million.

Sir Andy has expanded his property portfolio over the years, including a stunning residence in the heart of Oxshott, Surrey. The stunning abode, which he purchased for over £5million back in 2009, is just one example of his savvy investments.

Another victory for the tennis ace sees him owning Cromlix House, a five-star country hotel just a stone's throw from his Dunblane hometown, snapped up a decade ago for £1.8 million. His personal life draws as much attention as his athletic mastery. He married his partner Kim Sears, as sparks flew between the pair at the 2005 US Open event party.

Their romance captured the public's attention a year later and walked down the aisle into marital bliss in 2015. Now, their sparkling family life boasts four little ones - eight-year-old Sophia, Edie who is six, Teddy at four years old, and three year old Lola.

It's not always been plain sailing for the pair, as they experienced a brief split back in 2009. However, the pair soon rekindled within six months.

Discussing their relationship, Murray once admitted, "I work better in a relationship. At the end of the day, especially if I've lost a match, I don't like talking about tennis, so it's nice to have someone to talk to about other stuff."

Kim, Andy Murray's wife is no stranger to cheering on her husband during his matches. Her crazy outbursts famously captured fans attention at the 2015 Wimbledon semi-final against Tomas Berdych, when she was overheard shouting: "F****** have that you flash Czech f***".

Following Andy Murray's knighthood recognition in the Queen's New Year Honours list of 2016, he jokingly hinted at the necessity for Kim to moderate her courtside commentary. "She's going to have to [do] no more swearing during my matches any more, for any of you who saw that a few years ago," he chuckled.

Beyond the court, Murray takes pride in his family, openly ranking his relationship with his kids above his tennis triumphs. In an intimate confession during an interview, he confessed: ''I'd rather be getting up in the middle of the night and helping [with the kids] than winning every tennis match and her thinking when she grows up: 'Actually, you know what, he was a s****y dad but he won a lot of tennis matches so, you know, well done'.

In spite of his strong bond with his older brother Jamie, Andy's competitive nature has often caused tension between them. A notable rift occurred in 2008 after Murray chose to pull out of a Great Britain Davis Cup match against Argentina to protect his knee from further injurya match he would have competed in with Jamie.

In the wake of his younger brother's withdrawal, Jamie was compelled to team up with Ross Hutchins for the match, which they did not win. Expressing his frustration, Jamie confessed: "It kind of affects the way we feel about him. "He further commented: "I think it's disappointing he chose not to come."

"From what I have been reading he hasn't come out and said he's injured, it's more a prevention thing. I think if he had really wanted to push himself he could have come here for the match."

"It was a shock for me and for the team. I was not aware he had a problem."

"From his point of view, I guess he doesn't have anything to apologise for as he's taken the decision not to come. ""He would have been a formidable opponent because of his ability to win singles matches; he's a world-class player."

"He's been in the top 10 and not by fluke. I reckon he would have relished the challenge of having the crowd against him; he thrives under those conditions."

Andy, however, did not take long to respond to his brother's comments, stating: "It was a little bit disappointing. But he obviously felt pretty strongly about it and he's entitled to his opinion."

"If he knew what it was like playing three five-set matches in a row on clay then maybe he'd understand my position a little bit better. I've not spoken to him yet."

"I'll see him soon. I guess we'll have to have a chat about it and just discuss our feelings on Davis Cup and the sort of position that I am in, but it's probably not going to be the most fun conversation to have with your brother."

The brothers did not speak to each other for two weeks, but eventually reconciled .With retirement looming, Andy Murray has opened up about life beyond tennis.

"I don't know exactly what the rest of my life will look like, but I will still stay in touch with the sport," he expressed during an Olympic Village interview before the Games. "Initially, I want to be at home with my family. I want to spend a lot of time with my kids and my wife, so I won't be on the road much, I know that."

"Murray also hinted at a new sporting pursuit post-retirement, expressing his intent to sharpen his golf skills."

I'll play a lot of golf. " But as one sporting chapter closes, another may open for Murray, as he revealed plans to dedicate time to improving his skills on the golf course once his tennis career concludes."

I want to become a scratch golfer. I've always loved playing golf, but because of the issues with my back, I haven't played for five or six years.

"He also mentioned the possibility of staying connected to the Olympics in a different role, although his future plans remain undecided."

"I would also love to be part of the next Olympics in some capacity, but I don't have any clear plans on what it is I'm going to do from a work perspective."

The tennis star, contemplating a comeback to the sport, remarked: "I don't see myself playing any of the invitational things or those sort of events."

"I expect I'll still hit some balls and stuff, but when I play sport, I like to compete - whether that's in cards, golf or whatever. I want to be competitive."

"I don't want to just have a hit and giggle."

He further expressed his readiness to retire, saying, "I know it's the right time to stop - I didn't feel that way a few months ago when I thought this is when I was going to stop but I didn't really want to, whereas now I want to - and I know that it's the right time for me, so I feel good about it."
