Former tennis professional Henri Leconte thinks that Andy Murray needs to "relax" in order to win a Grand Slam.

Former French tennis pro Henri Leconte believes that Andy Murray needs to mirror Roger Federer's approach to tournaments in order to win a coveted Grand Slam.

The British number one has progressed to three Grand Slam finals, including this year's Australian Open, but has failed to end victorious on each occasion.

"He has the tennis, he has the talent but he has to realise it's great to be there and play in Grand Slam finals and semi-finals and not put pressure on himself," ESPN quotes Leconte as saying.

"He has everything to win a Grand Slam and he has to believe that. Just look at Roger winning so many Grand Slams and being so relaxed."

Leconte is competing in this week's AEGON Masters Tennis at the Royal Albert Hall.
