Andy Murray wants to put a stop to the habit of putting "extreme pressure" on players, as part of a legacy for his history-making achievement in winning Wimbledon.
The Scot ended a 77-year wait for a British male winner of the legendary Grand Slam event and is keen that the ensuing opportunity to learn lessons should not be missed during 2014.
Murray has been concerned about unhealthy attitudes in trying to produce winners for some time and elaborated on it at the Qatar Open where he has been preparing for the Australian Open, the new year's first Grand Slam tournament.
"I just think it got to a stage where it was desperation," he said. "It was hoping, rather than (thinking) what are you trying to do to develop the next Wimbledon champion.
"You know you could have the best system and structure in place and never get someone that wins Wimbledon.
"The goal is really to get a number of players to the top of the game and competing on the tour. That is the goal you would try to achieve, rather than there being almost an obsession with just Wimbledon, and with those two weeks."
