Andy Murray marked his coaching debut by dropping an F-bomb on live TV before perfect Dan Evans lifted the title at the Schroders Battle of the Brits yesterday.
Double Wimbled on champion Murray pulled out of his third-place play-off because of a shin injury.
The Scot instead stepped in as coach for his sub-James Ward and gave the British No.7 an X-rated pep talk during his sluggish first set against Cameron Norrie.
With courtside microphone s picking up every word in the behind-closed-doors even at the NTC, the former world No.1 le rip at Ward.
He said: “You need more energy.
“You have got f****** two weeks in Virginia to sit on your a*** before you play your next match.”
