Your support makes all the difference. Read more World No 4 Andy Murray was innocently hosting a question and answer session on Twitter when it was gate crashed by World No 2 Roger Federer.
The Swiss, the most successful player ever with 17 Grand Slam titles, decided to get involved in the Q&A session by jokingly asking: "how do you get your hair to be so curly" with the hashtag 'help a brother out'.
Murray responded to Federer, who was left red-faced after being lobbed by a kid in an exhibition game , by posting an embarrassing picture from his early career when he sported a much longer (and curlier) mop on his head.
He said: "Let me know if you ever want to go down this route... think it would be good for your image".

Murray has recently added Jonas Bjorkman to his coaching team - although he will start on a one week trial.
