Britain's Andy Murray clinched a second Wimbledon title and third Grand
Slam crown Sunday when he downed misfiring Milos Raonic of Canada 6-4,
7-6 (7/3), 7-6 (7/2).
Andy Murray,the 29-year-old world number two added the 2016 trophy to his 2013
triumph at the All England Club and his 2012 US Open breakthrough.
Appearing in his 11th final at the majors, but his first against an
opponent other than Novak Djokovic and Roger Federer, the Scot put on a
Centre Court masterclass.
Andy Murray buried his head in his towel and wept in the moments after victory.
"It's the most important tournament for me every year. I've had some
great moments and tough losses. I played some really good stuff today,"
Andy Murray said.
"The wins feel extra special because of the tough losses. I'm proud to have my hands on the trophy again."
"It's a difficult challenge. Andy has been playing great and he deserved to win, congratulations to him," Milos Raonic said.
Milos Raonic was attempting to become the first Canadian to win a Slam title
but he was thwarted by Murray's tough-as-teak defence and inspired
return game.
In the final analysis, his 29 unforced errors compared to Murray's
miserly 12 proved fatal in a match where serve was broken just once.
