Andy Murray likes to do things his own way, and it’s costing him millions.

Murray was expected to make as much as $75 million in endorsements after becoming the first British man to win the Wimbledon singles title since Fred Perry in 1936. Two years after his victory over top-ranked Novak Djokovic, No. 3 Murray still trails his rivals at the bank as the seventh-highest paid tennis player. He wouldn’t have it any other way.
