- Andy Murray continues to enjoy new adventures since retiring from tennis
- The Grand Slam legend played golf with Dan Evans on Wednesday
- Murray and Evans were previously defeated in men’s doubles at the Olympics.
Andy Murray continues to make the most of his retirement after playing golf with his former Team GB doubles partner Dan Evans.
The Scot made his last professional tennis appearance alongside Evans last week when the pair were eliminated from the Olympic men’s doubles at the quarter-final stage.
A glittering career on the court saw Murray become the first Briton in 77 years to win the Wimbledon men’s singles title, bidding farewell to tennis with three Grand Slam titles and Olympic titles to his name.
Since then, he has been busy attending other Olympic events with his daughter, socialising with the stars of Team GB and enjoying the luxuries that come with retirement.
One of those luxuries is hitting the golf course, and an afternoon spent alongside Evans on Wednesday saw the former teammates pit their skills against each other in a different sport.

Murray shared an update on his Instagram page showing the pair competing on the golf course.
Sharing an update with his more than 2 million followers on Instagram, Murray posted a selfie taken by Evans that shows the legendary tennis star practising his swing in the background.
Murray captioned his social media update with the words: ‘Mates last week… opponents today’, but it remains unclear who emerged victorious in the head-to-head duel on the golf course.

Evans and Murray had hoped their Olympic journey would have resulted in an Olympic medal after initially coming through the earlier qualifiers with a heroic comeback before eventually being defeated by Team USA.
Both were emotional when the curtain came down on Murray’s career, with Evans sobbing at Roland Garros and the Scot later admitting he was “glad” to finally put tennis behind him.
“I think it’s nice to have that kind of closure as well to be able to go to an Olympics,” Murray told Sky Sports.
“It was sad to leave the court for the last time, but happy, ultimately I’m glad I was able to finish my career on my own terms, on the court, in front of a brilliant crowd,” he added.
