Andy Murray is highly regarded as one of the most talented and formidable competitors on the tour, having clinched three Grand Slam titles to his name. However, the Brit experienced a stagnant season this year after he was unable to deliver promising results.

Despite experiencing a rough patch this season, Murray’s skill set has never ceased to amaze fans. Most recently, the 36-year-old was lauded for executing a perfect forehand during his hardcourt practice session.

Andy Murray recently uploaded a video on his official Instagram handle where he could be seen practicing his forehand. During one such groundstrokes drill, the Brit aimed at hitting a tennis ball can with his forehand, and surprisingly, Murray knocked the can with his breathtaking forehand skill.

Murray and Lendl first joined hands in 2011 and their partnership lasted till 2014, a period during which the 36-year-old added two Grand Slam singles titles to his notch – the 2012 US Open and the 2013 Wimbledon.

However, the duo renewed their partnership again between 2016 and 2017 which assisted him in bagging his career third Major title, the 2016 Wimbledon. Finally, the pair began their alliance last year but with the 2023 season failing to live up to the mark for the Briton, he took the hard call to put an end to his partnership with the 63-year-old coach.
