Sublime Murray finds A-Game

July 04, 2015 12:00 am | Updated 02:05 am IST - LONDON, England:

When a totally off-balance Andy Murray fashioned the most improbable lob winner to break Robin Haase in the first set on Thursday the Dutchman must have known that his 2015 Wimbledon journey was going to end . The delectable lob that bounced off the Scot’s racket gave him a 4-1 advantage and effectively broke Haase’s spirit as the 2013 champion sprinkled his opponent’s half of the court with 25 glorious winners to sprint to a 6-1 6-1 6-4 second-round win. Thursday’s outing on a hot and humid Court One would have pleased his coach Amelie Mauresmo.Reuters
