Here is an insight into Andy's plans once he has finished playing tennis - and a bit before too. Just another example of how he intends to give back to sport after his playing days are over.

Couple of things - shout out to James Willstrop (who lives in Harrogate where I am based) who has reached the semis of the above event. It is a big event and James has dragged his ranking back into the top 20 and looks like going higher and maybe top 10, which at the age of 35 is pretty impressive. Well done Ja...
What a poor selection of athletes this year, there must be better candidates - lots of sports with very low profiles and little mainstream TV coverage Elise Christie - short track speed skating; Sir Mo Farah - athletics, Chris Froome - cycling, Lewis Hamilton - F1, Anthony Joshua - boxing, Harry Kane...
