Rejected petition Andy Murray should be knighted with immediate effect

More details

Britain's first Wimbledon Mens singles champion for over 70 years Andy Murray should be knighted with immediate effect.

The Scotsman has achieved feats every bit as impressive as Sir Bradley Wiggins, Sir Chris Hoy and Sir Steve Redgrave.

Murray has surpassed that remarkable trio, and should go down as the greatest British sportsman of the modern era.
