Andy Murray claims he is taking inspiration from Jose Mourinho ahead of Wimbledon. The British number one says he will draw on the Special One's expertise as he attempts to become the first Briton to win the men's singles at Wimbledon for 75 years, according to the News of the World. Murray - criticised for his dour on court demeanour - said meeting the Real Madrid manager last year has given him help in dealing with the stress and extra attention that he faces. Murray said: "I spoke to Jose Mourinho when I met him last summer in LA. "He said, 'Just enjoy it because it is always going to be there. Get on with it and have fun'. "That is what I am like as a person but before I was keeping a lot of things bottled up. I was thinking too much or being stressed on the court. "Now I feel more comfortable. The best way is to try to be yourself and it comes across more naturally than trying to be something different." The 24-year-old, who begins his Wimbledon campaign against Daniel Gimeno-Traver on Monday, said he now finds playing at SW19 easier than many other tournaments. He added: "The build-up is different but, once the tournament starts, it isn't. I've always had really good support and it makes a big difference. "It's nice being able to go back home and watch the same TV that you always watch and stay in your own bed. "It's way more relaxing in many ways than a lot of the other tournaments." Murray has made it to the finals of both the US and Australian Opens, but lost in straight sets in both.
