'It's been hard these last few years. The pressure of playing Wimbledon is stressful,' reveals Murray as British hero celebrates becoming first home winner in 77 YEARS Andy Murray feels the weight of a nation's expectation has finally been lifted following his majestic maiden Wimbledon triumph. The British number one ended a 77-year wait for a male winner from this country when he defeated Novak Djokovic in straight sets amid euphoric scenes on Centre Court. And in his first interviews since lifting the trophy, Murray said he can now approach future Grand Slams without the incredible pressure that has pursued him throughout his career.
