Andy Murray continues impressive form on grass ahead of Wimbledon, wins Nottingham Open title

Andy Murray continues impressive form on grass ahead of Wimbledon, wins Nottingham Open title

The former two-time Wimbledon champion has started preparations for the third slam of the year with two consecutive title wins in Surbiton and Nottingham.

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. 

The three-time Grand Slam champion put in a clinical performance, converting three of his four break points to claim the Challenger Tour title without dropping a set across his five 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.
