Murray gets on board in Dubai

Barclays Dubai Tennis Championships' No 2 seed and World No 4, Andy Murray, has made his maiden voyage aboard a luxury yacht off the coastline of Dubai.

The 21-year-old Scot boarded the 85-foot yacht at the Jumeirah Beach Hotel Marina. The short voyage took him towards the Palm Jumeirah before passing the Al Qasr hotel, The Madinat Jumeirah resort and Wild Wadi Water Park before returning to the Burj Al Arab, where Murray is staying for the duration of the tournament.

“This is the first time I've ever been on a boat like this before,'' said Murray. “It was great fun and probably the best player activity I've done while I've been on the tour''.
