Andy Murray has a baby daughter – level 2

16-03-2016 15:00

Andy Murray’s new daughter is keeping him on his toes just like playing tennis.

The number two-ranked player in tennis, who is from Scotland, said that the first time he took care of his daughter alone, he realized how responsible he needed to be. He wants to have a positive impact on his family and balance his priorities.

The team of Andy, his brother Jamie, and two other men will defend the title in tennis for Great Britain. If the team wins, it will be the first time for Great Britain since 1936.

Difficult words: to keep on one’s toes (to move quickly), impact (an effect), priorities (the things that you have to do in life).

You can read the original story and watch the video in the Level 3 section.

Do you think that the Great Britain tennis team will do well?
