Andy Murray has been named as the 2022 Arthur Ashe Humanitarian Award recipient in recognition of his support for humanitarian efforts in Ukraine following Russia's invasion of its neighbor. Murray, a three-time Grand Slam champion, said in March he would donate all his prize money won from tournaments in the year toward aid efforts for children affected by the war. The Scot said in a statement he decided earlier this year that he would donate his prize money for the rest of the season to UNICEF's humanitarian response. The final total was just over $630,000.
