2016 Australian Open men's doubles champion Jamie Murray is from what country?

Jamie Murray, who won the 2016 Australian Open men's doubles title, is from the United Kingdom. He won the championship alongside Brazil's Bruno Soares, defeating Daniel Nestor and Radek Štěpánek in the final.

Murray was born in Glasgow, Scotland, one of the constituent countries of the United Kingdom. In international tennis records, he commonly represents Great Britain, which is why tournament listings often show his nationality code as GBR rather than spelling out “United Kingdom.”

The 2016 Australian Open was Murray's first men's doubles Grand Slam title. Later that year, he and Soares also won the US Open men's doubles title. Murray is the older brother of singles star Andy Murray, and both brothers helped raise Britain's profile in world tennis.

A small terminology trap surrounds this question: Scotland, Great Britain, and the United Kingdom are related but not identical terms. “United Kingdom” is the sovereign country, while Great Britain refers geographically to the island containing England, Scotland, and Wales.
