Looking back on the big tennis news in our exclusive ‘Second Service’… Andy Murray is ‘extremely disappointed but positive about next season’, as Stefanos Tsitsipas chases history at ATP Finals, and more.

To start this tennis news roundup, Andy Murray has admitted he has been ‘downbeat’ about the way his season ended, although he remains determined to rebuild his career.

In other tennis news, Stefanos Tsitsipas will attempt to make ATP history when he gets his ATP Finals campaign underway.

However, it wasn’t always friendly, as Wawrinka recalls.

The incident came in the semi-finals of the ATP Finals in 2014, when Wawrinka complained to the umpire Mirka was calling him a ‘cry-baby’ from courtside.
