Andy Murray Admits, He’s Gotten Out Of Jail
Two matches and harrowing escapes for Andy Murray. The Scot who’s among the favorites has struggled in two matches needing to comeback to beat 128th-ranked qualifier Radek Stepanek in the first round in five sets then today French wildcard Mathias Bourgue again in five sets.
Yeah, I mean, today certainly wasn’t easy. I mean, you know, I lost my way on the court today, you know, for quite a while,” Murray said. “I managed to win the match. That’s what I’m here to do. I don’t want to play five sets every round and don’t want, you know, to have big drop-offs in matches.
Murray will finally enjoy a day off ahead of Ivo Karlovic on Friday.
“The positive is I play Karlovic in the next round, and physically, you know, the average rally length will only be a few shots, maybe three, four shots max,” Murray said. “So that’s a positive there.
“For sure, tomorrow I will be tired. At least I get a day’s rest now. But, yeah, you can’t continue playing matches like that and then expect to win the tournament. So if I can get through the next one, it will be nice to win it a bit quicker.”
A short while ago, Murray took to social media to acknowledge just how fortunate he has been.
And to think everyone said he had an easy draw!
