Judy Murray: The Wild Card - Edinburgh International Book Festival 2023

The Open University is proud to sponsor Judy Murray: The Wild Card in conversation with Nicola Meighan, at the Edinburgh International Book Festival 2023.

Open University honorary graduate Judy Murray retired from tennis coaching to fulfil her lifelong dream of becoming a writer.

Today, she talks about her debut, The Wild Card. Set at a tennis tournament, it centres on a 38 year old woman successfully rekindling her playing career, years after putting it on hold. But the threat of her secret looms… Murray discusses her tale of triumph over adversity.

Tickets available via the Edinburgh Book Festival website. Pay what you can to watch in-person or online.

The OU offers sport and fitness courses and qualifications, such as the modules 'Working with people in sport and fitness' and 'Sport and exercise psychology in action', and a BSc (Honours) Sport, Fitness and Coaching, along with a wide range of free courses and articles available through OpenLearn.
