ANDY Murray has all but finished the most strenuous and successful season of his career. But he already can't wait to meet up again with his coach Amelie Mauresmo on the practice courts to work out how to get better in 2016. The 28-year-old, who will bring the curtain down on his year at an exhibition tie-break event in the Royal Albert Hall on Saturday, has racked up more match wins during 2015 than ever before this year, climbed back to his best-ever singles ranking of No 2, and only this weekend inspired Britain to their first Davis Cup victory since 1936.

But with the World Cup of team tennis in his bag, his sights are now set on completing the full set of the sport's major honours and retaining his Olympic crown in Rio next summer. That is why, after a short break, he will meet up with Mauresmo - who has been on maternity leave after giving birth to her first child Aaron in August - to plot the improvements he feels his game need to move to the next level.

"I haven’t seen Amelie for four months or so," said the World No 2, who has been working with Jonas Bjorkman ever since, with the Swede and the Frenchwoman having agreed to jobshare going forward. "I have made some improvements this year but I still have some stuff to work on if I want to go higher in the rankings and if I want to win in Australia and compete for the Slams.

"The Australian Open, obviously, I’ve been very close there a number of years," said the 28-year-old ahead of a tournament which he will enter as No 2 seed, and will thus steer clear of Novak Djokovic until the final. "I haven’t won there but I think I’ve often played my best tennis there. I really like the conditions, the courts. That’s obviously my next big goal, something to work towards. I will try my best to win all of the Grand Slams, there’s no doubt about that. Whether I am able to do it or not I’m not sure but I’ll try as hard as I can to get there."

The other date in his diary is of a more personal nature, with his wife Kim due to give birth to their first child in early February. Murray has cleared his schedule that month to help him adapt to fatherhood, his first return to competitive action likely to come at the Barclaycard Arena in Birmingham in Britain's 2016 Davis Cup opener against Japan. Whether he would play in a potential quarter final in July, shortly after Wimbledon and just before the Olympics, is another matter.

"The plan is to play in March, although I don't know what is going to happen with Kim and the birth yet so I can't say 100% for certain," said Andy. "Next year, if we were to win the first round, the quarter final comes at a very tricky time, with the Olympics as well. So that will be something that we will need to talk about but I will definitely be playing in the first match provided everything goes well with Kim."

While Britain can call themselves World Champions in the sport for the first time in 79 years, the World No 2 stressed that the Lawn Tennis Association had to act now if they are to safeguard his legacy. The Scot is disappointed with the amount of promising young players coming out of the British system underneath him and was shocked when he visited the LTA's £40m state-of-the-art National Tennis Centre in Roehampton only to find the place was like a ghost town. While he has only met with chiefe executive Michael Downey once on the subject, the lack of action from such chats makes him think it is a waste of time.

"They need to act on it now," said Murray. "It’s no use doing it in 18 months' time.

"I went to the National Centre to practise for a couple of days after Shanghai, I was there on a Monday at 3 o’clock and then on Tuesday at the same time," added Andy. "And there was not one person using any of the indoor courts and not one person in the gym. I took photos of it because the place cost like £40 million and there are no people. I spoke to Michael once before the tie in Glasgow in February. But sometimes I feel like you are wasting time because nothing ever gets done."
