Andy Murray captured the biggest title of his career with an emphatic victory over Roger Federer in the Olympic men’s singles final at Wimbledon.
The 25-year-old is the first British man to win the Olympic singles gold medal since Josiah Ritchie in 1908.
He had never beaten Federer in a best-of-five-sets match and lost to him in this year’s Wimbledon final.
Murray’s triumph came four weeks to the day since that 6-4 5-7 3-6 4-6 loss to Federer at the All England Club.
“It’s number one for me – the biggest win of my life,” said Murray.
“I have had a lot of tough losses in my career and this is the best way to come back from the Wimbledon final.”
