Murray to make Thai boxing debut
Andy Murray will face two of Thailand's top kickboxers after his first round match at the Thailand Open.
Murray, 19, will take on veteran Khaosai Galaxy, known as "the Thai Tyson", and Somluck Kamsing, who won an Olympic boxing gold medal in 1996.
"He has to learn to fight first, so I'll go easy on him, but tennis player or boxer, I won't be letting him win," said Somluck, now a singer and actor.
The Thailand Open takes place in Bangkok from 25 September to 1 October.
