KARACHI: Andy Murray fought back from a set down to defeat Marcos Baghdatis and reached the quarter-finals of the Olympic men’s singles tournament at the Wimbledon.
Murray, who also beat Baghdatis in round three of Wimbledon, fought back from losing the
first set to prevail 4-6 6-1 6-4 on Centre Court.
“It will be a tough match,” said Murray.
“He’s playing very good tennis just now. I need to play like I did in the second and third
sets today to win that and I can’t afford any more slow starts,” he added.
The world number four faces Nicolas Almagro of Spain in the last eight.
It was a real victory and Murray was being called on by the Union Flag-waving masses on
Centre Court.
He roared with glee and continually forced his fist, smiling to the crowd as he left the
court.
