Installation of a tennis court may be the first item of the post-Wimbledon to-do list for Andy Murray after the Scot made the move from a riverside south London flat to a six-bedroom Surrey mansion.
The sprawling mock-Regency pile features six bedrooms, a triple garage and acres of green garden. It also comes with a an indoor swimming pool, sauna, gym, library, cinema and games room.
With career earnings of around $7.5 million, the mortgage might be a stretch even for the well-monied Scot, but his off-court earning from sponsors should be helpful for any top-up.
Murray made the switch to the luxury home he will share with girlfriend Kim Sears in an effort perhaps to avoid the building national hysteria about his possible title chances. Observers said that Murray left many of the dirty details of the move to Sears while he trained at Wimbledon.

At about his age now is when Fed broke through with his 1st Wimby2009 and went on to dominate the sport up to this point. Murray just need 1 win in Wimby and his confidence will rise to a new level and I think if he does win this WImby, he will be no.1 soon enough and will finally break the Rog-Rafa domination in the Slams.

you may be right MonaLisa, but you have to realize he has a ridiculously easy draw - an out-of-form Gulbis, then Troicki/Dent, then probably clay courter Wawrinka or retiring Safin, underachiever Simon as the seeded player projected to meet him in the QF...without Nadal as a semifinal opponent, before you know it he could be in the final. Unless Roddick or delP are worthy semifinal opponents but I'm not sure about either of them...

He almost certainly can win Wimbledon. He has the game and the athleticism to do it. I think that he can be over cautious at times, but he, like Federer and Nadal, has the mentality to be a multiple slam winner. Although he dropped a set today, its really not the end of the world. Kendrick played out of his skin, whilst Murray did enough to win. That's the mark of someone who takes their tennis seriously- no need to showboat in the first round.

let's focus on tennis, information whether someone has play station in each room is rather tacky.

Smooth move Andy, get right away from the media circus, practise good karma. Also means, IMHO that he sees Wimbledon as a long term project, which is excellent for his fans.
