Andy Murray wins fourth Queen’s Club title

Andy Murray has won the prestigious Queen’s Club title for the fourth time by defeating Kevin Anderson in straight sets. After this historical win, Murray has joined the elite club of John McEnroe and Boris Becker as a four-time Queen’s Club champion. The British number one played excellently to win 6-3 6-4 in just 64 minutes at the Aegon Championships in London. It is Murray’s third title of 2015 after his victories on clay in Madrid and Munich.

With 34 career ATP titles, including six on grass, Murray moves up to 18th on the Open era list – level with Americans Arthur Ashe and Michael Chang, and Australian great John Newcombe. Even more significantly, it is the world number three’s first title on grass since his historic Wimbledon triumph in 2013.
