Andy Murray reminds TV host Williams sisters have more gold medals than he does

Andy Murray defeated Juan Martin del Potro on Sunday to earn his second Olympic gold medal, retaining his singles title after winning gold four years ago at the London Olympics.

He became the first tennis player to win singles gold in consecutive Olympics, which he reminded BBC host John Inverdale when he incorrectly asserted Murray was the first player to win two gold medals.

"Well, [first person] to defend the singles title ... I think Venus and Serena have won about four each, but hadn't defended a singles title before."

Watch Murray’s response in the video below.
