Sir Andy Murray: ‘I feel for younger players like Emma Raducanu — there’s less pressure on me now’

Murray might be famously competitive but if he is as offended as his family members for his own exclusion from the poster, he’s certainly doing a good job of hiding it as he laughs through various photo calls and talks fondly about his kids, Sophia, Edie, Teddy and Lola, aged between seven and two, who surprised him at the Nottingham Open for Father’s Day last month thanks to his wife, Kim Sears, who is an artist. “We have a [tennis] court at home and they play once a week for 45 minutes on a Sunday,” he says, smiling. “They seem to enjoy it, but most of the time they’re just messing around rather than actually playing tennis… I would never push them [to play professional tennis], but if they decided that’s what they wanted to do I would absolutely encourage them to do it”.
