Carlos Alcaraz, fresh off his second Queen’s Club Championships title on June 22, 2025, shared a lighthearted moment with Andy Murray, revealing they met up for a round of golf the day after his victory. Speaking ahead of Wimbledon 2025, Alcaraz recounted, “I played some golf. Actually, I play with Andy Murray on Monday and a few more players.” The Spaniard, who defeated Jiri Lehecka 7-5, 6-7(5), 6-2 in the Queen’s final, described the outing as a chance to unwind, adding that he also spent time exploring London and enjoying “good food” with friends. When asked who won the golf match, Alcaraz cheekily claimed he let Murray win, saying, “I let him win!” This playful interaction underscores their camaraderie, with Alcaraz, the world No. 2, previously citing Murray as an inspiration for his grass-court game, having studied videos of the former Wimbledon champion to refine his movement. The meeting occurred as Alcaraz prepared for his Wimbledon title defense, where he is seeded No. 2 and faces Alexander Bublik in the first round on June 30, 2025. Murray, a five-time Queen’s champion, has transitioned to coaching but remains a significant influence on Alcaraz.[](https://www.tennis365.com/tennis-news/carlos-alcaraz-reveals-surprise-andy-murray-meeting-queens-win)
