Listen, I completely respect his sporting achievements. However, he comes across as a spoilt attention seeker, and no I am not looking forward to seeing him flogging washing powders, infecting chat shows et al. Like all people I am sure he has many rewarding personal traits which many will identify with, notwithstanding his girlfriend, and good luck to them; for me though, he is a great tennis player who also strikes me as being a bit of a knob.
I really don't get this at all. Sure he is a bit dour on occasions and does not do the bubbly cheeky chappie thing but "spoilt attention seeker" really?
If you have an irrational dislike of the chap fair enough, I used to dislike Andre Agassi for no particular reason but liked Jimmy Connors equally irrationally

Sportspeople do it as a job and like any job if you do it well you tend to get paid more.
Whether that influences your buying habits is more to do with you.
Andy Murray is'nt the first Brit to win Wimbledon in 77 years. This is just typical sexist Tory propaganda.
Virginia Wade won Wimbledon in 1977, although all the right-wing newspapers have conveniently forgotten this.
So strangely enough has Andy Murray.
I bet his mum hasn't.

Although it was Sue Barker, herself a woman, who said on the BBC 'We've waited 77 years for this'.
A perfectly accurate observation. It is 77 years since the holder of the men's singles championship was a man.

They've all been women? Even Bjorn Borg and Boris Becker?
"Murray attended Dunblane Primary School, and was present during the 1996 Dunblane school massacre, when Thomas Hamilton killed 17 people before shooting himself" - might put a wee bit of perspective on Murray's character, TPA.Listen, I completely respect his sporting achievements.
