WITH ANDY MURRAY in his second Wimbledon Final in two years and playing superbly, media outlets have descended on his hometown for delightful ‘colour pieces’.
A horde of journalists and photographers are currently swarming all over Dunblane in Scotland. Any shop, library, butchers or public house displaying Murray paraphernalia has been visited by happy snappers — no vague Murray connection or story about how he used to play football on your green is unwelcome.
Here’s a selection of the passionate/crazy people that live in Andy Murray’s town:
A mix of Sean Connery, Steve Irwin and maybe, just maybe, Andy Murray.
These butchers were kitted out in their whiter than white headbands.
This is the tennis-inspired fare inside.
