Murray cruises past struggling Simon

Andy Murray moved into the last eight of the Rolex Monte Carlo Masters today with a 6-3 6-3 victory over injury-stricken Gilles Simon.

The British number one followed up yesterday’s win over Radek Stepanek – his first since the Australian Open – with an equally convincing win over the 26-year-old Frenchman in the third round of this clay court event.
