Andy Murray is keeping himself in good spirits ahead of the US Open which is exciting to his fans and the tennis community. He is actively doing interviews, engaging in collaborations, and gearing up for upcoming hard-court tournaments. In his latest interview, the 2-time Wimbledon champion shared a rib-tickling moment with Frances Tiafoe.

In this later stage of his career, the Brit had to encounter many present-generation players. He is often hailed for his high moral commitment, humble nature, and calm demeanor. Despite being a veteran, he maintains good relations with his younger colleagues, and his recent interaction with ‘Big Foe’ was proof enough.

Frances Tiafoe messes around the Brit by interrupting him mid-interview

The official Twitter account of ‘Tennis TV’ posted a funny moment in which Murray failed to notice the American hovering behind him for a considerably long time. Twitterattis were surprised and startled by the focus and attention of Murray toward the interview.

The three times Grand Slam champion is passionately talking about his comfort surface Grass and challenges on the hard court. The young ATP star stood behind him and started nodding and observing him from so close. But the Brit did not even get a hit till Tiafoe had to give in and intervene by saying, “That makes sense.”

Tiafoe did not wait to see the Brit’s reaction and walked away as soon as he uttered his words. Murray soon noticed him and rolled his eyes at the mischief of the 25-year-old. He said, “Oh my God! There he is!” He asked the interviewer, “How long was he there for?” to which she replied, “A long time!” Unaware of this, the 36-year-old thought entirely of something else of the interviewer.

Andy Murray did not approve of the interviewer’s reaction before laughing it out

The former ATP N0. 1 surprisingly spoke, “Oh really? (laughs out, bowing his head along with the interviewer) I didn’t even feel him! I thought you were laughing at my answer! I was like, ‘That’s a bit rude.’ “ This is not the first time Tiafoe felt funny about Murray. According to a report by ‘Tennis.com,’ after winning his second round at Wimbledon Championships, the American revealed the ‘Big 3’ funny ATP players.

Tiafoe named Gael Monfils and Murray, but only after adding himself to the list first. He regarded the 42nd seed’s humor as ‘very dry and funny.’ A day before, Murray shared a seriously hilarious video on his Instagram story featuring himself and his brother, Jamie Murray. This video confirmed Tiafoe’s dry humor comment.

Murray brothers played UNO, which led to a silly banter between them, as both refused to deny that they lost to each other during the play. But the younger one, Andy Murray, kept pressuring his big brother that he ‘pumped him’ until the elder one gave in. It feels like fresh air to see the Wimbledon champion laughing and carefree. He will play in the Citi Open next, his first hard-court tournament after the Grass court season.
