    Judy Murray has, for years, been quietly implementing steps to bring equality to tennis. Both in her work to help bring sport to the most disadvantaged communities in Scotland and providing a powerful female voice to the top of the professional game. It is her work that has provided an opportunity for so many. Whilst Judy has worked tirelessly, both her and her sons Andy & Jamie Murray have had to cope with immense media scrutiny. So, I spoke to her about how you cope with being one of the most recognisable mums in world sport and how she deals with being misrepresented when so much of her work goes below the public radar. Judy speaks about those nauseating minutes that lead to Andy's Wimbledon triumph and the pride she holds for the men both of the Murray boys have become.**PLEASE EXCUSE AUDIO QUALITY, THERE WAS AN ISSUE WITH JUDY'S LAPTOP**Please like and subscribe for more episodes soon.
