London, July 2 (ANI): British tennis star Andy Murray is hoping that his decision to much on the raw fish sushi, will give him the required energy to beat World No1 Rafael Nadal in this afternoon’s semi-final clash at Wimbledon.
According to The Sun, Murray has been munching up to 50 servings of sushi each night.
“Andy takes in about 4,000 calories a day, which is almost double the recommended amount for most men. He has six meals a day, including two protein shakes. Sushi is his favourite dish - especially spicy tuna rolls. His personal best is eating 50 pieces in just one sitting,” a source said.Teetotal Murray, who drinks six liters of water a day, has been winding down by playing FIFA’s official World Cup fantasy football in a mini-league organised by pals.
