Andy Murray made tennis history on Sunday as he ended a 77-year men's title drought for Britain with his 6-4, 7-5, 6-4, defeat of Novak Djokovic to win the Wimbledon Championships, dpa reported. It took Murray four match pints - plus three break points saved in a dramatic last game - to lift the nation with his victory. Murray hugged his longtime rival after Djokovic fired into the net on a fourth match point, then fell to his knees and buried his head in his hands on the grass of the most iconic court in tennis. Murray calmly climbed into the stands to thank his coaching team. Forgetting his mother Judy, he started to leave before rushing back to give her a hug. A crowd of 15,000 on Centre Court, including British Prime Minister David Cameron, watched the home hero's triumph in three hours, nine minutes. The success was the first for a British man at the home grand slam since Fred Perry won in 1936. -- SPA 20:47 LOCAL TIME 17:47 GMT تغريد
