Queen's Club have announced that an area of its centre court will be temporarily named after . The London-based venue will host its first Women's Tennis Association (WTA) event for 52 years next week, and Murray is expected to be in attendance.


A fans' seating area is currently being built on the Barons Court site and is set to be named the 'Andy Murray Arena' to commemorate the incredible success the 38-year-old enjoyed over the course of his career - which includes five titles at Queen's.


Speaking on the decision to honour Murray's tennis legacy with a stand, LTA chief executive Scott Lloyd said: "Andy is the greatest tennis player ever to come from this country and a giant of British sport. We are proud to name the arena at our tournament at the Queen's Club after him."


The area will be unveiled at a ceremony on Monday, and Murray is expected to be in attendance. This will be the first time that the Scotsman has attended an event on the grass since he brought the curtain down on his remarkable career at Wimbledon last July.



Murray won five Queen's singles titles, with the last of which coming in 2016. He then bounced back to success at the court when teaming up with Feliciano Lopez to win the doubles title just a matter of months after going under the knife for hip surgery.


Murray has continued to attend events regularly since hanging up his racquet, though he will no longer be a familiar face in 's camp. After spending six months as a key figure in his coaching setup, the pair decided to split last month by mutual agreement.


Despite the sudden split, the pair appear to remain on good terms. Following his victory in the Geneva Open last week, Djokovic said: "He did congratulate me [on winning Geneva], and he said: 'Now that you have a proper coach, you're winning tournaments.'"


"Of course, he was joking, but I think I have said enough, but I will say it again: Andy is just an amazing person. First of all, someone that I have spent most of my career with since the very young age on the tour, travelling, playing him, facing him in the earliest days, under-12 and all the way through to the last days of his career. For him to join my team and for us to give a shot to this player/coach relationship was really an incredible thing for tennis and for both of us. I was very privileged and honoured."
