ANDY Murray appears to have come up with a new game to amuse himself ahead of his third round clash at Wimbledon.
The 22-year-old Scot has been enjoying the "tennis player-snack name game".

He posted on his Twitter: "Tennis player-snack name game going on. Lleyton chewit, james flake, boris doubledecker. Get thinking......"

Other players getting the treatment included "John MacEnrolo", "Prawn Borg", "Martina Haggis" and "Egg Rusedski".

Murray has been trying to relax in between rounds, keeping his routine as "normal" as possible.

He cruised into the third round yesterday after beating Latvian Ernests Gulbis in three straight sets, taking just one hour 28 minutes.

Speaking afterwards he said: "The thing that's important at these tournaments is to do what you do every other week of the year, not to just change things because it's Wimbledon.

"We'll do forfeits and joke around and have fun like we always do because when you start changing things you start to worry about everything that's going on around you.

"If you just act normal you deal with things better."
