Tennis
Andy Murray had his say.
I follow golf very closely and have no idea how many ranking points the winner of the @TheMasters gets.
Me and my friends love football and non of us know or care how many ranking points a team gets for winning the @FIFAWorldCup— Andy Murray (@andy_murray) May 25, 2022
But I guarantee they will remember who wins. @Wimbledon will never be an exhibition and will never feel like an exhibition. The end.

Finished 3rd and got however many ranking points he got?I could be wrong but I don’t think any tennis player serving for a Slam title, any footballer taking a penalty in a World Cup shootout, or any golfer teeing off on the 18th hole of a major was thinking about ranking points🤷♂️
