Apparently I've started imagining things - Murray hits back at Verdasco

New York, August 30: Andy Murray hit back at Fernando Verdasco in a US Open coaching row, stating "I'm off to get a health check as apparently I've started imagining things."

Murray accused Verdasco of breaking the rules by speaking to his coach in the locker room during a 10-minute break - which the players were entitled to with the heat rule implemented - after the third set.

"Obviously if you say or Andy say that, I don't want to say that he lied, but I didn't talk one word with my coach or any one member of my team. I know exactly the rule and I don't want to be the one breaking it."

Murray delivered a parting message after bowing out of his first major since Wimbledon last year.

He posted on Instagram: "Bye bye New York. Was nice to be back out there competing in a slam again.

"Gave it my best effort but it wasn't enough. Thanks to everyone for the support and messages last few days
