The seven-time grand slam doubles winner has described a possible return to tour life as "far away."

Jamie Murray is not expecting the professional tennis tours to resume any time soon.

The men’s ATP and women’s WTA tours are suspended until July 13 due to the coronavirus pandemic, but the nature of the sport, with mass travel between countries and cities from one week to the next, is not conducive to a quick return in the current climate.

The seven-time grand slam doubles winner has described a possible return to tour life as “far away” and talked down the impact of playing behind closed doors.

“A lot of stuff I have been posting people can do at home,” he said.

“The workouts is just bodyweight only, it doesn’t require much space or minimal equipment. You can get creative, you don’t need fancy equipment.

“If you don’t have dumbbells you can swap them in for bottles of milk or water. It is just trying to show people different ways to stay active during the lockdown.

“It’s easy to vegetate on the sofa and watch TV, especially if you don’t have access to equipment. It is important to set yourself goals.”

:: Jamie Murray is partnering with Sport England to encourage the nation to #StayInWorkOut for the benefit of their mental and physical health. To find ways you can get active during lockdown and to Join The Movement visit stayinworkout.org.
