Tennis legend Andy Murray is set to compete in the Sunningdale Foursomes golf tournament, partnering with professional golfer Eddie Pepperell. The duo previously played together at the Alfred Dunhill Links Championship, where they finished tied 18th in the Pro-Am event.
Pepperell, however, has a controversial past. He received a six-month suspension from his home course, Frilford Heath in Oxfordshire, after damaging a green during a club championship. Pepperell admitted to slamming his putter into the green in frustration after missing a birdie putt, but claimed he repaired the damage effectively. He alleged that a following group exaggerated the damage with a photograph.
Pepperell also engaged in an online dispute with Bryson DeChambeau, criticising the American's slow play during the Northern Trust Open. He described DeChambeau as a 'single-minded twit' who makes the game less enjoyable for playing partners. DeChambeau responded by inviting Pepperell to discuss the matter personally, leading Pepperell to express regret for his personal remarks.
The Sunningdale Foursomes began on Tuesday and concludes on Friday. The 2025 edition was won by David Corben and Harry Crockett, who defeated Monty Holcombe and Oscar Lent in the final.
