But what exactly does it mean?
What does #AMC mean?
Andy Murray has been signing off his Twitter and Instagram posts using #AMC, which has left some followers wondering what it stands for.
AMC stands for Andy Murray x Castore, the clothing brand which has partnered Murray for the championships.
This means that Murray will be fully kitted out in Castore sportswear throughout the championships.
In fact, the two-time former Wimbledon champion has helped design his matchwear.
He said: “I work with the AMC designers on every piece, with technical performance at the heart of the process.
“It’s important that the kit performs under the toughest conditions.
“I really enjoy testing it, giving it my feedback and being part of the design process.”
