THE Archbishop of York has turned to Twitter to wish Andy Murray luck in the Wimbledon final and published a prayer for the tennis player on his website.

The Archbishop wrote the prayer on his blog. Under the title A Prayer for Andy Murray, he wrote: "Loving God we are so filled with hope by the Wimbledon final today! Guide Andy Murray in the choices that come to him with every ball. Make us all the best that we can be, by your Holy Spirit, through Jesus Christ, to the glory of God our Father. Amen."
