Undoubtedly, Murray has enjoyed more success than the ‘Big Three’ when it comes to playing at the Olympics. He won the Gold medal at the 2012 London Olympics by defeating Roger Federer in the finals and then, successfully defended it in Rio de Janeiro in 2016 by thrashing Juan Martin del Potro in the finals.
