When Andy Murray became a press reporter

Andy Murray was given a Press card at the French open 2012 by mistake. He tweeted about it and said he’s looking forward to ask Rafa some questions.

So let’s see what would happen if Andy Murray turned up during players’ press conference.

Andy Murray (AM) to Serena Williams:

Hi Serena, sorry for the first round loss. Were you upset that the chair umpire was the same who penalized you in the US Open 2010 final?

Serena: The less I talk about that match the better. Well, in this match, you see, I had to be very careful not to swear. After the first set, it started getting on my nerves. I couldn’t swear. I think I agree with you. The Spanish players are at an advantage. They swear and get away with it.

AM: I know. I complained about it. I really think we should all learn Spanish.

Andy Murray to Roger Federer:

Your next opponent in the 4th round is David Goffin. He said he has posters of you all over his walls. And you said it has happened before. Would you want to explain?

Federer: I mean, you know, there are so many young players that idolize me, you know. So, yeah, it’s happened before.

AM: Oh! So we can say that you are old now?

Federer: umm.. Could be you know, but just like I beat you twice at the Australian open, I said it has happened before. (Federer grins)

AM: (Thinking to himself and smiling) Well, yeah, when I cried at the Australian open, I thought the same as you cried too)

AM: Okay. So, Will Smith gifted you the MIB suit. Do you have any plans of wearing it?

Federer: You know, it was a great gesture by Will. But, you know, it’s black. If it was white, I would have worn it at Wimbledon you know.

Andy Murray to Novak Djokovic:

Hey Nole, congratulations on being world#1. We see that your French open outfit has got so many logos. Anything special?

Nole: (smiles) I am glad you noticed. Adidas (in mind, thinks, I told them so) decided to commemorate my special wins last year, you know I had so many.

AM: Oh, great, great! (wonders, when will my t-shirt look that way) Anyway, we have stopped seeing imitations from you. Why so?

Nole: Stopped? No, Andy. I mean, did you not see me catching my legs and trying to breathe? I always imitate you (smiles cunningly).

AM: (spell bound)

Andy Murray to Jo WilfriedTsonga:

So it is the French Open and you must be riding high on home support (rolling his eyes. Thinks, tell me about it)

Tsonga: Yes, absolutely! But you see, I have been doing that since the past 6 years. Rafa hasn’t allowed me to do my celebration ritual (wipes sweat off his head).

AM: Oh! By rituals, I am reminded of that comment made by you on Rafa’s rituals. You said that sometimes watching the so many rituals of his, you wished him to trip and fall.

Tsonga: (cuts in between) It was a random comment Andy. We all have our rituals, but mine is the best you see. It rubbed off on you as well, remember? (winks)

AM: (remembers his match vs. Richard Gasquet at Wimbledon and grins widely)

Andy Murray to Rafael Nadal:

Hola Rafa! The moment I knew they gave me a press card, I straight away wanted to ask you questions.

Rafa: (smiling) Gracias Mooray.

AM: So, Rafa, people have been saying that you have been complaining a lot like a whiner, you know?

Rafa: Whiner? No no, I don’t drink wine during matches. His PR (Benito) interrupts and translates.

Rafa: Oh sorry. (raising eyebrow) I speak my mind no, if I don’t feel it is right, I will say it no.

AM: So you have said you will not compete in Madrid next year if the clay is still blue.

Rafa: Si’, that’s true. But you see, it is in Spain, my country and it is a compulsory tournament. So instead, I will send my wax figure there. (Asks Benito: We can borrow it from Madame Tussads, correct?)

AM: (Thinks to himself) This time, I was injured and so withdrew. I should also think of something for next year. The blue clay is dangerous, so is the talk in the locker room. But my mom (Judy Murray) likes the Spanish Armada, I should keep this thought to myself.
