Tennis: First Round
from 3am BBC1

Andy Murray is going to his fourth Olympics, having won individual gold medals at the past two. The Olympics really matter to him and tennis being at the Games is something he believes in strongly. He’s arguably the greatest British athlete who has ever lived, for what he has achieved and for what he’s trying to still achieve. Going through surgery and playing with a metal hip, he teaches us about resilience. He’ll be playing singles and doubles, alongside Joe Salisbury. Dan Evans will also play singles and doubles (partnering with Neal Skupski), as will Jo Konta and Heather Watson. CLARE BALDING
