Jul 2 2005

By The Evening Chronicle

Andy Murray will have Mark Petchey as his full-time coach when he plays his first event since Wimbledon next week. Petchey confirmed he will quit as manager of men's national training for the Lawn Tennis Association to coach the 18-year-old Scot. The pair began working together at the start of the grass court season when Murray won his first ever matches on the ATP Tour. He reached the third round of Wimbledon before losing to former finalist David Nalbandian in five sets on Centre Court. "I'm so pleased to have Mark as my coach, I respect him a great deal," Murray said. Story continues ADVERTISEMENT "He has helped me massively over the last few weeks and I am excited to work with him moving forward."
