WATCH: Andy Murray Makes a Heartwarming Gesture for a Kid After Initially Refusing

The legendary British player Andy Murray is currently playing at the Indian Wells. Yesterday, the 3-time Grand Slam champion got past the Japanese player, Taro Daniel, in the first round to move to the next round. Murray is trying his best to get some form back after mixed 2022 so far.
Despite his on-court struggles this year, Murray has been pretty active off the court. Recently, he announced that he would donate his salary to help the Ukrainian children for the rest of the year. Earlier this week, Andy showed again that he has a heart of gold, as he made a kid happy while signing a few autographs.

Andy Murray gave his hat to a young kid

Former world no.1, Andy Murray, has been preparing for the ATP Masters 1000 event at Indian Wells. Earlier, after the practice session, Murray was signing some autographs for the fans. From the crowd, a little kid asked Andy if he can have his hat. To the little kid’s disappointment, the British player refused, at first.

According to the British player, he has very few hats with him and that’s why he can’t give it to him. However, Andy later changed his mind, as he felt bad about the kid. So, the Brit gave his hat to the kid. Later, he jokingly said to the kid, “If I run out of hats though, might need to bring it back to me.”

After receiving the hat from Andy, the kid felt really happy as he thanked the British player. 

Murray started at Indian Wells with a win

The 2-time Wimbledon champion had a great first-round win at the Indian Wells against Taro Daniel. This was a revenge match for the British player; the Japanese player got the best of him at the Australian Open second round. After losing the first set by 6-1, Murray’s comeback to win was pretty impressive. Eventually, Murray won the match by 1-6,6-2,6-4.

Incidentally, this victory was also his 700th career win, and only Roger Federer, Novak Djokovic, and Rafael Nadal have more wins than Murray in the Open era. In the next round, the Brit will face Alexander Bublik, from Kazakhstan. It’s no doubt that it will be a massive test for the British player.
