Overview

  • Debbie Jevans confirmed in June 2025 that the statue will be unveiled during Wimbledon’s 150th anniversary in 2027.
  • Murray and his team will work closely with the All England Club to shape the sculpture’s design, inspired by Rafael Nadal’s Roland Garros tribute.
  • The monument will recognise Murray’s two men’s singles titles in 2013 and 2016, which ended a 77-year wait for a British champion.
  • Fred Perry remains the only other player with a full-length statue at Wimbledon, installed in 1984 to mark the 50th anniversary of his first win.
  • Some fans have questioned why other legends, notably Roger Federer, have not been similarly honoured at SW19.
