Lockdown gave Judy Murray a taste of retirement, and she found she rather liked it.
While best known among the wider public for being Andy and Jamie's mother, Judy has been a one-woman task force for growing tennis in Scotland and for girls and women across the UK and globally.
Since her days as the national coach for Scotland, when she helped a group of young players including her sons to make it to the professional game, Judy has been immersed in the sport, but now she wants to take a step back.
She told the PA news agency: "I'm used to travelling, it's been a way of life for me since the kids were very young and when I was the Scottish national coach.
"It has been really strange but I have to say that I really enjoyed most of the first lockdown because it gave me a chance to step back and chill out and not be packing a suitcase or jumping on a plane. It made me see what retirement looked like, and I quite liked it.
"I'm definitely going to step back. I realise I'm getting a bit long in the tooth and I've been doing this for such a long time. It's actually now time for the next generation to step up."
That means carrying on and building on the work Judy has done to make teaching tennis fun and inclusive and taking the sport out of its traditional communities.
This week Judy is working with cinch, title sponsors of the cinch Championships at Queen's Club, who are offering the chance to win free tennis lessons.
"I really love things like that because not everybody can afford lessons, not everybody has access to a coach, so it's really opening the opportunity up to everybody," said Judy.
"For me tennis is the number one family sport and you can play all your life. I've always wanted us to create a culture of tennis like you find in Spain or France. France has 10 times as many people who play tennis as us and probably 10 times as many clubs and 10 times as many competitions.
"For us to have a culture of tennis, we have to open it up so that we get bigger numbers. Everything's about numbers. Sport runs through families. You can see that in our family with Andy and Jamie, and my parents played at county level."
Judy has travelled less to watch her sons in recent years but is looking forward to seeing them back in action at Queen's having not watched any of their matches in person since last summer.
"I'm really looking forward to it," she said. "I love Queen's. It's one of my favourite tournaments. I think it's because it's at a club and it's grass courts and it's in Britain, so I've always loved that tournament.
"After the year and a half almost that we've had with so little live activity to watch, it'll be great to get back down there and see it all happening."
Although she will be less involved in tennis going forward, one thing Judy believes needs to happen is better support for young players in preparing them for life in the spotlight.
Naomi Osaka's announcement she would not be talking to the media at the French Open and subsequent withdrawal focused attention on the demands on young athletes.
"It's been a big thing for me for a long time is that not enough emphasis is put on understanding the life and business of a professional athlete in the early years," said Judy.
"We're preparing them to hit forehands and backhands and match tactics and so forth, but are we preparing them for doing a post-match interview and being able to speak in front of the media?
"When you get to the top of the game, if you are someone like Naomi Osaka, you're in front of a 200 or 300 press pack each time you have a real low. Andy was saying to me in 2016, the year he became world number one, he did over 100 press conferences.

"And of course he's older but I know how difficult it was for him when he was starting out. I would like to see a lot more emphasis on that, whether it's from the national governing bodies, the tours, the management companies or agents.
"I think there is a lot to be learned from the Osaka incident, and of course we have to be just as aware of helping players who have mental health issues as we are of the physical injury issues."
