Tennis Was My Escape

SIR ANDY FINALLY OPENS UP ABOUT DUNBLANE

It’s the tragedy that’s haunted Scottish tennis champion Sir Andy Murray for most of his life. However, the Wimbledon winner has always refused to talk about the events of the horrific day when a gunman opened fire in Dunblane Primary School, killing 16 children and one teacher.

Andy, then a young pupil at the school, is deeply scarred from the experience but has opened up for an upcoming documentary about his tennis comeback. He’s still so affected by the 1996 horror that he couldn’t talk into a camera, instead recording a message for director Olivia Cappuccini.
