Murray taking it one match at a time

Reigning champion Andy Murray is realistic about his chances of defending his crown at this week’s Madrid Masters following the tournament’s change to clay courts, admitting he is not looking any further than his opening match.

Murray clinched last year’s event in the Spanish capital with a 6-4 7-6 (8/6) final victory over Frenchman Gilles Simon – one of five titles the Scot won in 2008.
