Murray getting hitched while coaches ditched

Andy announces engagement - and split with longtime staffers

Andy Murray announced his engagement to longtime girlfriend Kim Sears on Wednesday while also dispensing with two members of his backroom staff in Dani Vallverdu and Jez Green.

The 2013 Wimbledon champion, who was originally coached by his mother, Judy, has retained Amelie Mauresmo, herself a former Grand Slam winner, as his head coach, while his engagement to Sears follows their nine years as a couple.
