Andy Murray has confirmed he will retire after the Olympics, saying Paris 2024 will be his "last ever tennis tournament".

It had been widely expected that the 37-year-old Scot would call time on his career after a fourth appearance at the Games as he looked to go out at the top.

Murray was recently robbed of a Wimbledon farewell in the singles after he had surgery on a spinal cyst just a week before the tournament began.

The three-time grand slam champion, who is the only man to have won two Olympic tennis singles gold medals, said on Instagram: "Arrived in Paris for my last ever tennis tournament @Olympics.

"Competing for (Team GB) have been by far the most memorable weeks of my career and I'm extremely proud to get do it one final time!"
