Murray unveiled a new Jaguar—and buckled up the Wimbledon trophy for a promotional ride across the UK.

The world No. 1. covers off the new Jaguar XF Sportbrake before placing his Wimbledon trophy inside and sending it on a UK-wide tour to inspire the next generation of players.

Jaguar is the Official Car Partner of The Wimbledon Championships and to celebrate the relationship, the premium wagon was revealed on a replica of the All England Lawn Tennis Club’s Center Court. The moment was streamed on Facebook Live.



"Winning my first major title ten years ago was an amazing moment for me; the culmination of everything I'd worked for my whole life. I feel very lucky to have got to where I am today and hope that anyone passionate about tennis gets the opportunity to play and improve," said Murray. "Letting go of the trophy will be difficult, but there's no better vehicle than the Jaguar XF Sportbrake to take it on this UK tour.

"I'm pleased that people are going to be able to get up close to the trophy when it visits schools and tennis clubs, and hopefully it might encourage people to pick up a racket this summer."

The XF Sportbrake joins the award-winning Jaguar XF sedan, now in its tenth year of production.

In their third year as the official car partner of The Championships at Wimbledon 2017, Jaguar will supply 170 vehicles from its award-winning range to the tournament.
