'I learned from Murray' - Boulter won't make wedding ring mistake
Andy Murray has long been a guiding figure for British tennis, but newly-married Katie Boulter will not be following his lead when it comes to keeping her wedding ring safe as she prepares for the US Open.
Katie Boulter, a newlywed tennis player, will not make the same mistake as British tennis legend Andy Murray when it comes to securing her wedding ring. Murray accidentally lost his wedding band in 2021 after leaving it under a car to dry out, only to find it days later after posting an appeal for its return. Boulter, who recently married fellow Australian tennis star Alex de Minaur, revealed that she won't be risking a similar mishap.
She said she doesn't wear her wedding ring during matches. Boulter and De Minaur's wedding featured a mix of intimate and larger celebrations, with the latter taking place in Tuscany, Italy. Post-wedding, Boulter returned to tennis training before the US Open, which starts on Sunday. She will face Carol Young Suh Lee in the first round, while fellow British players like Fran Jones, Harriet Dart, Harry Wendelken, and Toby Samuel also secured their places in the main draw.
