Murray was annoyed that TV cameras zoomed into his bag to reveal handwritten tactical pointers during Sunday’s 6-4, 7-6 (2) win over Bulgaria’s Grigor Dimitrov.

“I just asked this week... that I don’t mind the camera being on me at the change of ends but just to not be right inside my bag, if possible.

“Hopefully they respect that and it’s not a problem.”

The Wimbledon and Olympic champion was speaking after he beat France’s Lucas Pouille 6-1, 6-3 to reach the Shanghai Masters quarter-finals.
