On Friday, Andy Murray began life as a retired tennis player. BBC Sport looks at how he will spend the near future and what the longer term might hold.

Britain's Murray, 37, has brought his illustrious career to an end, playing his last match as a professional on Thursday with a defeat in the Olympics men's doubles quarter-finals.

The pair discussed a wide range of topics - including how Murray knew it was the right time to retire, why growing up with older brother Jamie forged his mental resilience and his love for collecting Olympic pin badges. "I'm looking forward to having experiences with my family, which I've not had time to do because of the tennis," Murray told Hoy in a sit-down interview.

"We played before we left and you guys know what he's like - he will be pretty competitive and well into that," said Dan Evans, who played alongside Murray in his final tournament.Murray's retirement leaves a vacuum in British tennis and the global game. "It's not something I want to do immediately; it might be something I want to do in the future," Murray told BBC Sport.
