Former tennis champion Andy Murray has opened up about a surprising new goal after retirement — becoming a golf caddie. The 38-year-old Brit, who ended his tennis career after the Paris Olympics last year, shared that it would be his “dream” to caddie for fellow Scotsman and Ryder Cup star, Robert MacIntyre.
Speaking on *The Romesh Ranganathan Show* podcast, Murray said, “I love golf, and if you’re passionate about the sport, being a caddie for a top golfer sounds like a dream job. To be part of big moments and help with crucial decisions would be incredible.” He added, “The dream would be carrying Robert MacIntyre’s bag when he wins The Open — that would be amazing.”
When asked if his presence might attract too much attention, Murray admitted it could at first. “Initially, yes, but not long-term,” he explained. “People would be excited for a while, but it would eventually just become normal.”
Murray, who plays off a handicap of two, recently impressed fans at the Alfred Dunhill Links Championship, where he played alongside professional golfer Eddie Pepperell. Reflecting on the event, he shared, “It was an amazing week in Scotland, despite the brutal weather. Huge thanks to Eddie for putting up with my golf!” The former world No. 1 also revealed ambitions to one day enter The Open’s regional qualifying rounds — though he modestly admitted he has little chance of making the cut.
