  • Mac the mouth offers anger management for Murray

    Mac the mouth offers anger management for Murray Longtime loose cannon John McEnroe has volunteered to give Andy Murray some anger management training during Wimbledon.

    As the player who cut the template for dodgy on-court behavior three decades ago, a now-reformed Mac has donned his senior statesman hat in offering to advise Scotland's scowling world number 11.

    “He probably should give me a call and I might be able to help,” McEnroe told British media.

    The American claimed that his famed anger and rages at umpire was “positive” while that of Murray “bring negativity. He does need to figure out a way to use his feelings more positively.”

    Murray's trademark loud swearing on court at hot moments has not gone unnoticed, but the 21-year-old says he won't be changing a thing to please the public.

    The polar opposite on now-retired “Gentleman Tim” Henman is apparently feeling the weight of the nation on his shoulder as the lone British hope for even a second-week showing at the All England club.

    McEnroe said he would be keen to have a fatherly chat with Murray. “I would talk to him about it although I have a son older than him so maybe there’s a generation gap”.
