Australian Open: P-p-pick up a few tips on how to relax

ANDY Murray has revealed his unorthodox approach to relaxing between matches - pretending to be a penguin.

The Scot, whose public image is that of a serious young man occasionally given to temper tantrums, displays his comic side in an online video.

He can be seen competing with brother Jamie as the pair waddle in front of the camera to perform their best impressions of the flightless bird. Their mother Judy even gets in on the act, as she takes her turn.

The video, which emerged yesterday, shows the brothers laughing and hugging each other as comedy music plays along to the minute-long clip posted on the internet.

Jamie, 24, added a link to the footage on his Twitter account, urging fans to watch and judge for themselves.

He tweeted: "Came bk from Melbourne Aquarium with a penguin impression, Andy Murray says his is better, u tell me."

Within a minute, he was offering viewers the chance to show off their own penguin impressions, with the best winning an Australian Open shirt signed by both the Murray brothers.
