Tennis legend Andre Agassi just smashed a myth about Andy Murray
The former tennis world number one said his pal often didn’t seem the same off court as on it.
Former world number one Andre Agassi has put to bed a common misconception about his pal Andy Murray: that he’s a bit of a grump.
“Now, Andy looks like he’s this constant complainer out there sometimes or unhappy to be there, but he just couldn’t be a nicer person.”
The much-loved Scot is firmly in the nation’s hearts these days, after winning two Wimbledon championships, a US Open and becoming the first ever singles player to win two Olympic gold medals.
Once asked at a pre-match press conference if he thought 1930s tennis great Fred Perry would bless his victory, he replied, simply: “He’s dead.”
Agassi also gave his verdict on the most likely candidates to win the men’s singles title next weekend, citing Rafael Nadal and Roger Federer as two stars on top form.
There’s still everything to play for.
