LONDON -- Andy Murrays first Wimbledon championship was for his country.This one was for Andy Murray.Dulling big serves with quick-reflex returns, conjuring up daring passing shots and playing impressively mistake-free tennis all the while, Murray beat Milos Raonic 6-4, 7-6 (3), 7-6 (2) on Sunday for his second trophy at the All England Club and third Grand Slam title overall.In 2013, Murray famously ended Britains 77-year wait for one of its own to win the mens final at Wimbledon, a quest that became burdensome.Now he wanted a victory to end his personal rut of three consecutive losses in major finals, including at the Australian Open in January, and French Open last month.It is different. I feel happier this time. I feel more content this time. I feel like this was sort of more for myself more than anything, and my team as well, the second-seeded Murray said. Last time, it was just pure relief, and I didnt really enjoy the moment as much, whereas Im going to make sure I enjoy this one.This was his 11th Grand Slam final, but the first against someone other than Novak Djokovic or Roger Federer. The sixth-seeded Raonic eliminated Federer in five sets in the semifinals Friday, and also defeated the player who stunned Djokovic in the third round, Sam Querrey.Those wins helped Raonic become the first man representing Canada to reach a major final.He did it, primarily, by averaging 25 1/2 aces through six matches. But on a breezy afternoon, at a Centre Court filled with nearly 15,000 partisan fans, Murray shut down that integral part of Raonics game.This ones going to sting, Raonic said.Its been a rough few weeks for Britain, what with its vote to leave the European Union, the drop of the pounds value, and the resignation of Prime Minister David Cameron, who was seated in the front row of the Royal Box on Sunday, several seats over from Prince William and his wife, Kate.During the trophy presentation, Murray joked: Playing in a Wimbledon finals tough, but I certainly wouldnt like to be a prime minister. Its an impossible job.Murray, a 29-year-old from Scotland, long dealt with the expectations that accompanied being Britains best chance to find a male champion to succeed Fred Perry, who last won the grass-court tournament in 1936. After Sundays victory, Murrays mother, former British Fed Cup captain Judy, referred to that old phenomenon as, The constant, `When are you going to win Wimbledon? When are you going to win Wimbledon? When are you going to win Wimbledon?But her son has dealt with that and thrived, thanks to a counter-punching game and sublime returns of serve.It took Raonic 36 minutes and five service games to record his first ace, and he wound up with only eight. Over and over, Murray managed to get the ball back, even one that came in at 147 mph.And while Murray only broke Raonic once, to lead 4-3 in the opening set, that was all it took, because the tiebreakers were surprisingly one-way traffic.Murray also took 50 of 65 points he served across the first two sets, not only never facing so much as a break point in that span but also being pushed to deuce merely once.Finally, at 2-all in the third, Raonic got to 15-40 for his first -- and, it turned out, only -- break points, thanks to a forehand return winner off an 82 mph second serve.Potentially turning points, said Carlos Moya, one of a trio of coaches for Raonic, including John McEnroe. If he got that break, who knows what could happen?But Murray stood tall, taking the next four points to hold, then wheeled toward his box, pumping his right fist and yelling.According to the official statistics, Murray made only 12 unforced errors, two in the second set. While thats a subjective accounting, anyone watching and listening could plainly tell that he was striking the ball cleanly and confidently, a crisp thwack resonating as racket strings hit ball, much more often than not putting shots right where intended.Really good stuff, Murray said.His opponents take? He was playing much better than me off the baseline, Raonic acknowledged.Taking it all in from Murrays guest box, with seemingly nary a smile, was coach Ivan Lendl. They worked together when Murray won his first two Grand Slam trophies, including at the 2012 U.S. Open, then split up, before reuniting last month.Once again, that partnership paid off, and at Wimbledon, no less.When he sat in his sideline chair after the match concluded, Murray wiped away tears with a tournament towel.To do it twice here, he said, an event where there is a lot of pressure on me to perform well -- Im very proud with how Ive handled that over the years.

HOOVER, Ala. -- Southeastern Conference Commissioner Greg Sankey scrapped much of his planned speech at the leagues annual media days to decry the wave of shootings across the country.This is one of those times in our nation where we weep, we mourn, for those families and cities who have experienced loss, Sankey said.Sankey said the shooting in Dallas that killed five police officers was particularly personal because he lived in the city for 11 years. One of the SECs schools, LSU, is located in Baton Rouge, Louisiana, which is where Alton Sterling was killed by police after being pinned to the pavement by two white officers.He hoped the SEC -- and sports in general -- could provide a bridge in understanding during social strife.Sports brings people together, Sankey said. I think our universities do as well, and we need to be mindful and attentive to that reality and the opportunities associated with that reality.Vanderbilt linebacker Oren Burks agreed that football gives athletes a unique platform.I feel that its terrible to see innocent people killed for no reason, Burks said. Whether its African-Americans or cops, it doesnt matter. We need to have a sense of honor and respect for human life. I feel like thats basically all that needs to be said.Sankey also paid tribute to the late Pat Summitt. Tennessees Hall of Fame womens basketball coach died last month at 64, more than five years after being diagnosed with early onset dementia, Alzheimers type.Pat was a pillar of the Southeastern Conference, Sankey said. Shes on par with many of the great names, may have set the standard for all of the great names that are a part of this conference. Her impact is felt every day in the lives of the young people she mentored.The leaagues 14 teams will conduct interviews throughout the week in Hoover.ddddddddddddere are some other league issues that Sankey addressed on Monday:- Sankey said he believes the league is doing very well in NCAA rules compliance, noting that in August, there was no league school under NCAA probation for the first time since 1984.But with Mississippi and Missouri both under current NCAA investigation, thats likely to change soon.We hope both of the current matters are completed in a timely manner, Sankey said. We understand there are issues that arise. Thats why the expectation for integrity is so high. And as we move forward together, we cant have any more of those issues.- The commissioner said he wasnt sure if the Power Five conferences, including the ACC, SEC, Big 12, Big Ten and Pac-12, would come together to issue some sort of guidelines on time demands for athletes.I know that we will have continuing conversations around those issues, Sankey said. I wont predict outcomes. And well see if that leads to a statement, first from this conference, and if we collectively should say things. I think that might be the next step.- The commissioner paid tribute to several other longtime SEC figures who have recently announced their retirement, including Florida and South Carolina football coach Steve Spurrier, and Florida athletics director Jeremy Foley.Sankey also praised longtime broadcaster Verne Lundquist, whose last season calling SEC games will be this fall.-----Visit the APs college football website: www.collegefootball.ap.org .-----Follow David Brandt on Twitter: www.twitter.com/davidbrandtAP ' ' '
