Wimbledon doubles champion Jamie Murray reveals a hatred of Big Brother stars in our latest 60-second interview.
What are your ambitions for next season?
Well, first I'd like to find myself a new doubles partner, that would be good. I'll take who I can get now just to get started with anyway. I'm only 23 next year, a lot younger than most of the other doubles players on the tour, so there's still a lot more for me to achieve.
What famous person would you like to meet?
Alex Ferguson.
Who would you like to mouth off at?
I guess there are a lot of people out there who are famous for being famous. They haven't really done anything except go on Big Brother and they make a lot of money from that.
Who was your sporting hero?
When I was growing up I was always watching Sampras and Agassi. Those were the guys at the top of the game. But from another sport? You've got to love Tiger Woods.
Is there a word that you overuse?
My brother always says I say 'hopefully' too much in interviews.
What food would you never eat?
I'll eat anything, to be honest with you.
What's the last album you bought?
The last thing I downloaded was the new Lil Wayne. That's the rapper in me coming out.
What's your most embarrassing moment?
Once I came on to court and the pockets of my new shorts were still stitched up. I kept on trying to put balls in the pockets and dropping them.
How long do you take to get ready in the morning?
Not very long, I'm straight up and I go.
When was the last time you threw a punch?
Never in my life. Though maybe if this interview goes over 60 seconds.

A very talented and nice young man, all good wishes for next season.
He's a lovely young man! Bumping into him and his brother at this year's Davis Cup at Wimbledon and getting their autographs were the highlights of that weekend:)
All the best for next year, and find yourself a good partner!:)
It always come to happen like that,in other for you to know your love one's'Jamie it takes nothing in founding some money moungers,but hard to fine your ture love,but at the appionted time you shall see whom to love you for who you are not for what you are'*Hopefully*you will find a good partner.
both murrays are talented tennis players
Like Jamie better then his brother. "Hopefully" he'll find a good doubles partner.
couldn't agree more with the big brother so called 'celebrities' answer! If they actually did something in their life like being a wimbledon champion instead of annoying others on trash tv... Good luck next year Jamie!
