Murray, 37, announced that the Olympics would be his final tournament, bringing a close to his time in professional tennis on a stage that holds special significance for him.
Announcing his retirement via his X handle late Thursday, the athlete posted, “Never even liked tennis anyway.”
Murray’s last match was in the men’s doubles quarterfinals at Roland Garros, where he partnered with fellow Brit, Dan Evans.
They faced the American team of Taylor Fritz and Tommy Paul, ultimately losing 6-2, 6-4.
Despite the loss, Murray expressed pride in finishing his career on his own terms, a sentiment he emphasized given the uncertainties he faced in recent years due to injuries.
