In an emotional speech after his first Grand Slam men’s double title at the Australian Open, Jamie Murray told his brother, “Andy you should be in bed. I don’t know why you’re here taking photos. Good luck tomorrow.”

This was Jamie’s third time at a final - the last two were with ex-partner John Peers at Wimbledon and the US open where the Scot lost.
