Rejected petition Stop Andy Murray getting a Knighthood

More details

The idea of giving Andy Murray a Knighthood for winning Wimbledon is preposterous and makes a mockery of the Honours System.

I can think of several British sportsmen who have won their sport's World title on more than one occasion and in some cases, they haven't been honoured at all.
