Sir Andy Murray admitted he was left feeling “upset and angry” at the revelations of his mother Judy that she had been sexually assaulted.
The 62-year-old tennis coach had kept the incident secret from her younger son for eight years since it happened at an awards dinner at a leading educational establishment.
But last month she warned Murray, 35, that she was going to write about it in the Scottish Post in response to accusations of misogynist and sexist comments that had been made at a Scottish Football Writers’ Association dinner.
