The Legend that is Andy Murray

Today in the news there was one name that just kept popping up and that was Britain's newest hero, Andy Murray. It was 77 years since a British man won the prestigious Wimbledon tennis tournament, and on Sunday, our hero put an the end of this grueling wait. 

The Prime Minister, David Cameron, was so overjoyed with Murray's success that he has even suggested knighthood. A bit over the top, perhaps, but his victory certainly lifted the spirits of the British public, including those of the staff here at OISE Oxford.

Today Mr Cameron and other politicians put their political differences aside as they chatted to Murray in the No 10 garden. 'Mr Cameron, Labour leader Ed Miliband, Deputy Prime Minister Nick Clegg and the Scottish National Party's Westminster leader Angus Robertson listened intently to Murray, who just 24 hours earlier had claimed a historic victory.'1
