Murray falls to speedy Gonzalez

ANDY MURRAY admitted he was left helpless by Fernando Gonzalez’s booming forehand as the Chilean ended the Scot’s impressive run at the French Open at the quarter-final stage, the 12th seed Gonzalez powering his way to a 6-3 3-6 6-0 6-4 win.

The naturally-attacking Gonzalez can blow hot and cold but yesterday was one of his better days as he hit 45 winners to steamroller the third seed on a sun-kissed Philippe Chatrier court.

Murray acknowledged the man who he claims has the biggest forehand in tennis deserved the victory.
