Melbourne: The men's World No. 1 is set to be treated as tennis royalty at the Australian Open next week with the official local broadcaster planning to refer to him as "Sir Andy Murray".


The Scot was knighted in Britain's New Year Honours list after a magnificent 2016 and tennis chiefs have been mulling what to call him, according to the Sydney Morning Herald. "Not only is he tennis royalty, he's now a Knight Bachelor, so yes of course we will be showing him the respect he deserves and refer to him as Sir Andy Murray," Channel Seven's head of sport Saul Shtein said.
