Dad-to-be Murray 鈥榦n next plane home鈥
ANDY Murray declared “I just want to get home” and headed straight for the airport yesterday as he raced to be reunited with his pregnant wife after his Australian Open final defeat.
Murray, who has been on baby alert all tournament with his wife, Kim Sears, due to give birth within weeks, said he was getting the next flight home after his loss to world No. 1 Novak Djokovic.
“I’m proud that I got into this position, you know. Just quite looking forward to getting home now,” Murray said in a quickfire press conference before rushing for his plane.
Murray paid tribute to his wife. “You’ve been a legend for the last two weeks. Thank you so much for all of your support.”
He was also magnanimous in defeat. “I feel like I’ve been here before,” the Scot joked on court. “I’d like to congratulate Novak. Six Australian Opens is an incredible feat. And what he has done in the last year has been incredible consistency.”
Murray became only the second man in the post-1968 Open era — after Ivan Lendl, his former coach — to lose five finals at the same grand slam tournament.
