Murray and his girl swap SW19 for tropical paradise (but he still spends time in the gym)

Lounging around: Andy Murray plays on his Nintendo DS as girlfriend Kim Sears reads her book on holiday in the Bahamas

She had been able to do little from her position on the sidelines of Centre Court, as Murray was crushed by the tournament's eventual winner, Rafael Nadal in SW19 a few weeks ago

She loyally watched his Wimbledon matches - and shared in his agony when he was knocked out in the semi-finals.

So perhaps it's only fair that Andy Murray's girlfriend gets a taste of the R and R too.

And as the 23-year-old tennis player relaxed in the Bahamas at the weekend, Kim Sears was never far from his side.

But this was an altogether different story. When the glare of the sun got a little too much, the 22-year-old student helped take the heat off her boyfriend, lovingly rubbing some sun lotion on his back.

The pair have only recently rekindled their relationship after splitting up in November.

But in the Atlantis resort, they lay contentedly side by side on sunloungers, engrossed in their books and games like a couple well used to each others' company.

An onlooker said: 'They spent about two-and-a-half hours by the pool, she was reading her book and he spent most of that playing on his Nintendo DS.

'They looked very relaxed. I think they were just enjoying a chill-out weekend.'

The Scot is thought to have flown to the resort for a short stay before returning to Miami, where he has an apartment, to continue his preparations for the U.S. Open, which begins next month.

And even poolside, it seems that the tournament was never far from his mind.

The British No 1 honed his competitive tendencies on his Nintendo - and also spent more than two hours training in the gym during their visit.
