NEW DELHI: In an effort to gear up for Wimbledon, Andy Murray showcased his readiness by triumphing over French player Arthur Cazaux in the final of the Nottingham Open. Murray secured a 6-4, 6-4 victory, claiming a second consecutive grasscourt title following his recent win in Surbiton.
Demonstrating his prowess on the court, the three-time Grand Slam champion displayed a clinical performance, successfully converting three out of four break points. Remarkably, Murray managed to claim the Challenger Tour title without dropping a single set throughout all five of his matches in the tournament.
“It was a really good week, I really enjoyed my time here. The courts have played brilliantly, the groundstaff did an excellent job,” Murray said.
“I played really well and got better as the week went on and I’m glad to get through – on to Queen’s. I’m absolutely pumped.”
The 36-year-old Briton, who has resurrected his career after hip resurfacing surgery, skipped the French Open to focus on the grasscourt swing.
He is next in action at the Queen’s Club Championships, which start on Monday.
