Murray plays marriage prank on Twitter
Andy Murray had to retract a comment he made on Twitter after saying he was getting married to long-term partner Kim Sears.
He appeared to suggest during a question and answer session that he was to wed after this season's Wimbledon, where he is the defending champion, but later admitted that he was joking.
@saravana_24 we are getting married just after Wimbledon should be a great day

However, Murray has since insisted it was just a prank.

He has been together with Sears, daughter of tennis coach Nigel Sears, since 2006.
