EDINBURGH: The Duchess of Cambridge has showed off her tennis skills — to none other than Andy Murray’s mother.

Kate, Prince William’s wife, put on a sporty outfit and sneakers to join dozens of students in Edinburgh during a workshop hosted by tennis coach Judy Murray Wednesday.

The royal is often seen in the royal box at Wimbledon and is known to be a keen tennis player.Earlier in the day the duchess visited two school charity projects and took part in a sing-along with school children.

She was carrying out her first solo official engagements in Scotland.
