Il primo ministro David Cameron euforico propone Murray per il titolo di baronetto...
ed è satira...
Prime Minister David Cameron says Andy Murray deserves a knighthood after becoming the first Briton to win the Wimbledon men's singles since 1936. Full story
The cartoon by Andy Davey from The Sun shows the Queen knighting Andy Murray. The Wimbledon champion, who is wearing his tennis kit and holding the men's singles trophy, is down on one knee. David Cameron is giving the thumbs up sign to show his approval. The joke is that the Queen is using a tennis racket to knight Murray rather than the usual sword.
VOCABULARY

Only men can become knightsunder the British honours system. The closest female equivalent is a dame.

PS:
Mentre si gioca la partita, una grande soddisfazione tutta italiana, sul tabellone appare il risultato di Gianluigi Quinzi , vincitore del torneo junior contro il coreano Chung. Era dal 1986 che un italiano non vincesse, da Diego Nargiso. Fa una bella impressione leggere quel nome al Centre Court.
