Three-time Wimbledon champion Boris Becker has claimed that Andy Murray is reaching his peak after winning a second title at the All-England Club.

Murray dominated the final at SW19, beating Milos Raonic in straight sets to secure his third Grand Slam triumph.

However, Becker has also suggested that the British number one will win more major titles in the future.

He told BBC Sport: "Obviously, the big one is always the first one and once you break that duck there's room for more. He's 29, at the peak of his career, so I'm sure he's going to be up for a few more Grand Slams.

"Grass is his most natural surface, and he's always going to be a big threat at Wimbledon. Hard court is a great surface for him too. He'll be winning a couple more."

Murray reached the finals of the Australian Open and French Open this year, but was beaten by Novak Djokovic on both occasions.
