Jamie Murray annoyed that brother Andy pulled out of Davis Cup
Tennis star Jamie Murray is annoyed that his brother Andy has withdrawn from this weekend's Davis Cup tie in Argentina.
Andy Murray, 20, pulled out of the contest last week, and said it was because of a problem with his knees.
However, it came as a real surprise to Jamie Murray who is reported to have said: "It was a shock to me and for the team, very disappointing - I was not aware he had a problem. It's disappointing he chose not to come and it kind of affects the way we feel about him. If he wanted to really push himself he could have come here."
Andy Murray also claimed he had been advised not to play on clay in Argentina after playing on hard courts in Australia, although Jamie Murray is not convinced and thinks his brother is being far too cautious about taking part in this very important tournament.
"He obviously felt it was more important for him to concentrate on going to Marseille and doing well than coming here," Jamie Murray added.
