Andy Murray had to fulfill his media obligations on Saturday ahead of the start of Wimbledon, but he very much did not want to be there.
Murray’s press conference coincided with the second half of France’s exciting 4-3 victory over Argentina in the opening game of the World Cup’s knockout stages, and the two-time Wimbledon champion made no secret of the fact that he would have rather been watching the match.

Murray’s press conference coincided with a wild stretch in which France turned a 2-1 deficit into a 4-2 lead, which will surely annoy him even more.
Sometimes, athletes just want to watch sports. Those pesky media obligations always seem to get in the way.
