Murray Loses
In First Round At Abu Dhabi
Much
fanfare has been made about the way Andy Murray intends to burst out of
the starting blocks at the beginning of the 2013 after an intensive
training program under coach Ivan Lendl and fitness trainer Jez Green.
So there was a distinct sense of anti-climax as the Scot lost his season
opener in the Mubadala World Tennis Championship.
US Open champion Murray appeared off his game and
ill at ease as he lost out convincingly 6-3,6-4 against Serbia’s Janko
Tipsarevic on the opening day of the lucrative exhibition event in Abu
Dhabi.
