Andy Murray has played Roger Federer 25 times in his glittering career including Grand Slam and Olympic finals, but he admits that getting to practice with the Swiss great ahead of this year's tournament felt extra special.
Murray beat Federer to win the 2012 Olympic gold medal on Wimbledon's Centre Court, a few weeks after losing to the Swiss in the Wimbledon final. "I'm appreciating those things more. When I take a step back from that, as a tennis fan, getting to play with Roger Federer two days before Wimbledon, it's really great. I haven't had the opportunity to do that sort of stuff over the last few years."
While the true test of Murray's physical shape will come in the heat of battle, he is upbeat about his practice level.
