Andy Murray and his confession

The Scottish-born tennis player has confessed that he tried to train his daughter Edie in tennis, but this has ended in failure as he himself has confirmed: She wrote a letter to his father in which he said: "Dear daddy, I will not play tennis for a while, much love, Edie". Murray, who could become a coach when he retires, has not started well in his possible future position, as "the first foray into the world of coaching has ended in disgrace". He also added that his 5-year-old daughter "has quit, telling me that I don't want to play anymore, you get too close to me.
