Sure, Scottish tennis champ Andy Murray lost Wednesday morning in the Wimbledon quarter finals to American Sam Querrey, but he won our collective female heart’s when he corrected a reporter’s ‘casual sexism.’

During a post-match interview, a reporter stated that Sam Querrey was the first U.S. player to reach a major semi-final, but Murray was quick to remind the reporter that Querrey isn’t, in fact, the first American player to reach the semi-final of a slam since 2009. He interjected “male player” to clarify that the achievement has been reached by women. Serena Williams anyone?
