Andy Murray LIVE score: Qatar Open quarter-finals updates against Alexandre Muller

This will work as a starter! The first serve of the match is an ace ‘t’ down for Murray. The next point is a much longer rally but Murray’s aggressive ground kicks force the error to 30-0.

Muller takes long and then Murray puts in a forehand volley for a simple grip to love. The perfect start for the British

Warm-ups are complete. Murray will serve first. Today, the draw opened for him with world number 170 Alexandre Muller in the quarter-finals of the first main round and Jiri Lehecka, 21, who was waiting in the semi-finals…

Andy Murray has always been the one to never die, but this season it feels like he’s taken his fighting qualities to almost comical new heights.

After a series of marathons at the Australian Open, it was an epic pair of three sets that made it to the quarterfinals this week. He saved match points against Lorenzo Sonego before winning in the first round, then went deep against Alexander Zverev again yesterday.

Is it another adventure today or can she get the job done more calmly? Time will show us.

Muller correctly says ‘Qatar’ (her choice was Qatar or falcon…) and Murray who chooses to serve will serve first. A quick warm-up and then we’ll be on our way.

Andy Murray and Alexandre Muller have never faced each other before, which is perhaps not surprising given that Muller has never reached the main tour quarterfinals before.

There are 100 places between them in the world rankings, and France’s Müller 170 is 70 places behind Murray. Still, Muller should not be underestimated after beating shrewd campaigner Nikoloz Basilashvili and eighth-seeded Botic van de Zandschulp in Doha this week.

“He’s clearly had a good week this week,” Murray said of his upcoming rival after yesterday’s Alex Zverev win. “After qualifying he will have played four games now, so it’s clear he likes these conditions.

“My coach is obviously going to watch some videos or something to get a little more familiar with his game, but this is an opportunity for me in the quarters.”

Here are the players! Tremendous welcome for two-time Qatar Open winner Andy Murray. This can be fun.

The Qatar Open is an ATP Tour 250 event, but it has attracted the attention of a star-studded entry roster.

Alexander Zverev (4) – ELIMINATED

Jiri Lehecka cleared things up against Andrey Rublev. The Czech star won in sets of 4-6, 6-4, 6-3, which means the 21-year-old will face the winner of Andy Murray and Alexandre Muller tomorrow in the semi-finals.

Murray and Muller will be on the field shortly. Lets start!

The two have never met before, but Murray unsurprisingly comes in as the favourite. Given the challenging nature of his previous two matches, there will be concerns about his physical condition and his recovery will no doubt be put to the test. This will be Muller’s first appearance in a main tour quarterfinal, and this lack of experience – compared to Murray – could well cost him this game. Murray wins in three sets.

We’re approaching Murray, who’s on his way to court. Jiri Lehecka plays perfectly in the decisive set against Andrey Rublev.

One game away from a 5-2 win. Remember, Murray vs Muller is watching this match
