During these moments when most of the world population is in lockdown because of the Coronavirus, exercising and sport at home are the new trends alongside all sorts of challenges.
Andy Murray and his wife Kim call out the tennis community to join a lockdown challenge hoping that the likes of Roger Federer and his wife Mirka will also join.
Andy posted: “A challenge to all tennis players and fans… The 100 volley challenge. There was no bickering during the filming of the video, although I think the last volley was aimed at my head… I can’t be the only one that wants to see Rog and Mirka hitting a few balls together…”
