Former World Number One Andy Murray has started his preparations for Wimbledon in dominant fashion after beating Frenchman Arthur Cazaux 6-4, 6-4 in the Nottingham Open final on Sunday. This was Murray’s second successive grasscourt title after his victory in Surbiton last week. Murray, who decided to skip Roland Garros, the second slam of the season, has shown that his decision was the right one as he gets ready to play in the Queen’s Club Championships next week.

“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.
