What time is Andy Murray’s doubles match at Wimbledon with brother Jamie?

Andy Murray will play alongside side brother Jamie Murray in the men’s doubles on Centre Court as the two-time champion begins his emotional Wimbledon farewell.

Murray was forced to pull out of his final singles match at the Championships after ruling that he had not recovered from a back operation in time, but the 37-year-old wants to maximise his opportunities at his final Wimbledon before he retires.

He has taken wildcards to both the men’s doubles alongside brother Jamie and the mixed doubles with Emma Raducanu. The men’s doubles comes first on Thursday and the Murray brothers will take to Centre Court in the third match of the day. They will face Rinky Hijikata and John Peers.

When will Andy Murray play at Wimbledon?

His match alongside brother Jamie will be the third on Centre Court on Thursday 4 July.

It will follow Novak Djokovic’s match against British wildcard Jacob Fearnley and then women’s World No 1 Iga Swiatek against Petra Martic.

With play starting at 1:30pm, Fearnley forced Djokovic to four sets, with Swiatek’s match still to come, starting at 5pm.

Swiatek took the first set at just before 6:00pm and then clinched the match 6-4 6-3 at just after 6:30pm.

Murray could expect to be on court at around 6:50pm.
