Who Jamie Murray picked as his favourite doubles partner over Andy Murray

Jamie Murray has brought an end to his illustrious tennis career after 22 years in the professional game.

Murray took to social media to bring an end to a career which brought him to world number one and saw him lift seven Grand Slams.

The Scottish star, who also helped Great Britain in their first Davis Cup title for 79 years, has reverted to a punditry position in recent years.

Back in 2025, the legendary Scotsman named another star as his favourite doubles partner instead of his brother, Andy Murray.

Jamie Murray’s favourite doubles partner

Speaking on TalkSPORT, Murray was asked for his best-ever doubles partner from his storied tennis career.

In an interview with Nick Kyrgios, Murray immediately responded: “[Martina] Hingis for me was a different level.

“Her level of ability and skill set was crazy. Also, whenever things got close or edgy, she would say ‘I’m going to do this’ and she would deliver.”

Hingis won five Grand Slam singles titles in her career, with the earliest coming at the age of 16 at the 1997 Australian Open.

Murray believes her mentality is what made her such a brilliant partner in doubles.

“For me, that was different; she definitely had the champion’s mentality or whatever you want to call it. It was impressive; she made the game look so easy, which all of the great players do, but it was impressive. I was very fortunate to play a couple of tournaments with her before she retired.”

Murray and Hingis won two Grand Slam titles in 2017, at Wimbledon and the US Open, in back-to-back major tournaments.
