Phew! Late-running Andy Murray presented with OBE by Prince William
LATE-RUNNING Wimbledon champ Andy Murray made it to Buckingham Palace in the nick of time to be presented with an OBE.
He posted on Twitter: "In the middle of a drug test hahaha I'm goin to be late!!!"
But, despite the delay, the tennis star escaped the embarrassment of a tardy arrival.
He was joined at the ceremony by girlfriend Kim Sears and parents Willie and Judy.

The Scot was awarded the OBE in the New Year Honours, before his historic win at Wimbledon this summer.
He was honoured for his triumph the US Open last year, as well as claiming gold at the London 2012 Olympic tennis tournament.
Last month, Murray was forced to end his current season early due to surgery on his back.
He won't return to the court until January, depending on a successful rehab treatment.
