Wimbledon have revealed they have "plans in place" to pay tribute to Andy Murray at this year's tournament.

Asked if Murray had been part of the planning, Wimbledon Chief Executive Sally Bolton said: "We've certainly been talking to members of his team."
Asked whether tributes were likely to bring tears to those watching on, Bolton responded: "I think we'll all share some of the same emotions as and when Andy decides to retire."
Murray, 37, has strongly hinted he will bring his professional tennis career to an end this summer.
