**The shirt worn by Andy Murray during his winning Wimbledon match has raised £10,000
for charity via [CharityStars](http://www.charitystars.com/) auction.**

The auction lasted 13 days and had 90 bids on Britain’s leading online charity auction
website with the eventual winner bidding £10,000 for the shirt.

CharityStars hosted the auction on behalf of [Malaria No More UK](https://www.malarianomore.org.uk/),
a charity that Murray has supported since 2009, wearing the Malaria No More logo
on his sleeve throughout this year’s Wimbledon tournament.
