US Open: Spain’s Fernando Verdasco beats Andy Murray

171

Andy Murray had earlier predicted that his chances of winning the US Open isn’t a “realistic one” and it  proved quite right when he was handed defeat by Spain’s Fernando Verdasco in the second round of the competition on Wednesday. Murray was ousted 7-5, 2-6, 6-4, 6-4 by the Spaniard at the Arthur Ashe stadium.

Recovering from a hip surgery, Murray, who won this competition in 2012 had a three-hour and 30 minute battle with Verdasco where he eventually gave up on a fourth match point in an attempt to take the game to a fifth set.

Murray, as quoted by The Indian Express said, “I think some of the tennis I played today was some of the best I’ve played since I had the surgery or since I came back.”

“But there were also periods in the match, especially in the first set where I really didn’t play particularly well. “Then kind of at the end when my back was against the wall, I came up with some good tennis to make it close and interesting,” he added.

Since his hip surgery in January, Murray was competing in his fifth event and the sharpness and accuracy wasn’t seen in him. But the 31-year showed determination and fought through the first set which lasted for a period of 62 minutes. He took the second set to level the scores in the match.

But the 31-st seeded Verdasco dominated a major part of the game and it wasn’t until the end of the match that the Spaniard found it tough to finish things off.

“It was tough of course to close the match,” said Verdasco who won his first match against Murray in nine years.

He added further, “With Andy, it is always tough. He is an … unbelievable fighter.” Verdasco would next face Argentina’s Juan Martin Del Potro who defeated Denis Kudla 6-3, 6-1, 7-6(4).
