SCOTLAND'S own Sean Connery and Alex Ferguson crashed Andy Murray's post-match news conference after he won his US Open semifinal at Flushing Meadows, New York, on Saturday.
"Excuse me for interrupting," Connery, the Oscar-winning actor, said right after the Scottish tennis star answered a question about getting a day of rest before the final.
He then introduced Murray to Ferguson, the Manchester United manager. Murray and his mother, Judy, posed for pictures with the two.
"You smell of wine," Murray told his mother.
"He made me have wine," she said of Ferguson. "He's just been telling me that Scotland invented the wind," referring to the blustery conditions in which Murray prevailed to put himself in position to be the first British player to win a grand slam singles title since Fred Perry in 1936.
It was the first time Murray met Connery or Ferguson.
