Andy murrays mum seems to be at every match he plays, unless she has a valid reason, say in his fitness regime, or is his manager, but im not sure i would care to have my mum there all the time.

This was being talked about on Talk Sport on Thursday night. The presenter was begging Andy's mum to stay at home and watch the match on TV on Friday, because he always seemed to do better when she wasn't there. I think he needs to grow up and tell her where to go. I was hoping Nadal would win, he's a much better player than AM as the semi-final proved.

Quote from Andy Murray's dad...................

Most people get the impression that I was an absent father,’ Will added. ‘That certainly was not – and is not – the case. I’m happy to stand back in the shadows so long as the facts are right.’
Will, not his wife, brought up the boys in the family house in Dunblane. ‘I kept the family home and looked after them for the next four or five years,’ he explained. ‘A lot of people don’t realise that because the story isn’t portrayed that way. That’s fine by me, because the boys know exactly what happened.’
He would not elaborate on what caused the marriage to break down but Judy, Scotland’s national tennis coach in those days, has said: ‘I was away a lot and then you are coaching till quite late in the evening. Your domestic life gets hit for six.’
Will conceded: ‘Tennis may have played a part in our break-up but we just grew apart.
‘Judy stayed in Dunblane, so she was still around. She still took them to tennis but we worked it out together. I might take one to one tournament and she’d take the other to another. But the tale hasn’t come out like that – it seems like she was the one always there. I worked full-time but I cooked when they came home from school. I did the washing and ironing.
‘I wouldn’t say I was a single parent, because Judy wasn’t absent. But I was the one in the family home with the two boys.’
