You're a tennis superfan if you can guess which Wimbledon star this advert is about | The Sun

THIS X-ray was the talk of the tennis town when it went public a few years ago.

And now it has made a comeback as part of a superb advertising campaign during Wimbledon, including on the London Underground.


The image shows the pelvic bone, bottom vertebrae, hips and upper legs.

But crucially there is a very clear anomaly with the addition of a metal hip on one side.

The X-ray came to light when Andy Murray shared details of his hip resurfacing surgery on social media.

Murray underwent the procedure in January 2019 in the hope of salvaging his tennis career.

Fans at the time hilariously pointed out they were convinced the X-ray was X-rated – because of a strange shape between Murray's legs.

But now his clothing sponsors Castore have dug out the scan as part of their Wimbledon ad.

The sportswear brand have simply used the image and added the words "better never stops" and their logo.

The tagline is, of course, a reference to the two-time Wimbledon champion's remarkable rise back up the tennis rankings after the potentially career-ending surgery.

Ex-world No1 Murray is now ranked 40th – just missing out on a seeding at the All England Club for this fortnight's Championships.

He was drawn against fellow Brit Ryan Peniston in the first round this year, thrashing the wildcard 6-3 6-0 6-1 in two hours.

And before the tournament started, he insisted he could rival Novak Djokovic to win a third Wimbledon title.

He is wearing his own Andy Murray Castore range for the brand, founded in 2015 by brothers Thomas and Philip Beahon.

The company now has the McLaren F1, Red Bull F1 and England cricket teams on their books as well as football giants Rangers and Newcastle.

That included the Magpies' new green away kit – with a strong resemblance to the away strip worn by Saudi Arabia at the World Cup.
