THAT’S ACE Emotional Andy Murray chokes up after being surprised by wife & kids after 2nd straight tournament win before Wimbledon
CHOKED-UP Andy Murray was given a special Father’s Day present when his four kids turned up by surprise for his Nottingham Open win.
The Scot warmed up for Wimbledon by lifting silverware for a second successive weekend as he enjoyed his longest winning streak for more than six years
Two weeks before the start of the Championships in south-west London, the 36-year-old tennis superstar overcame young Frenchman Arthur Cazaux 6-4 6-4 for his TENTH straight win in a row.
But as he started talking in the trophy celebration about his family and his desire to race back to London in time for their bedtime, he was alerted to their presence in the crowd at the Nottingham Tennis Centre.
Wife Kim and children Sophia, Edie, Teddy and Lola were all in the stands.
It was the first time ALL of the Murray household had seen him lift a trophy live and as he grew more emotional, he had to stop looking at them to avoid bursting into tears and breaking down.
The former world No.1 said: “Oh my God – ah, I didn’t know they were here. I had no idea they were coming.
“They came last week for the final at Surbiton and when they turned up, it started raining. So they had to go home for the kids’ bedtime and missed the end of the match.
“It’s great they have been able to come today. They are all there. Thanks guys.
“My family have been unbelievably supportive with me continuing my career.
