Post-Retirement Glow-Up: Andy Murray Rapidly Drops Golf Handicap to Single Figures While Embracing Hilarious ‘Embarrassing Dad’ Life with His Four Kids
ir Andy Murray is thriving in retirement, slashing his golf handicap to low single figures (around 2-3) in just over a year while fully embracing hilarious dad duties with his four children. The 38-year-old, who retired after the 2024 Paris Olympics, has swapped tennis intensity for fairway focus and family fun.
“My kids think I’m a golfer now,” Murray laughed, admitting daily practice and pro events like the Alfred Dunhill Links. From a starting handicap of 7-20, he’s become one of the UK’s top celebrity players, partnering pros and outdriving some.
At home with wife Kim and kids Sophia (9), Edie (7), Teddie (5), and Lola (4), life’s lighter: school runs, bedtime stories, and “embarrassing” moments—like eldest Sophia rolling her eyes at his enthusiasm. Christmas feels “magical” again, with elf-on-the-shelf antics and no tournament guilt.
Recent highlights include Walker’s Shortbread campaigns celebrating Scottish roots and reflecting on coaching Djokovic. Murray’s glow proves legends can ace everyday life—birdies, dad jokes, and all.
