Intro:

Reaction from Andy Murray after his third round matche at the French Open

Script:

SOUNDBITE (English) Andy Murray, defeated Nick Kyrgios 6-4, 6-2, 6-3:

(Q. You pulled out before your match against Goffin in Rome. You may have to play him in the next round, we don't know yet at the moment. What can you tell me about him?)

"I think he's a very talented player. He's very fast. I think he's been quite streaky, you know. At times when he gets confidence, you know, he can play extremely good tennis. I mean, last year he obviously went on a run. When I played him at Wimbledon last year, when I came off, I said, I felt like he played really well towards the end of the match, and then he went and won something like 20 matches in a row. I wasn't expecting that. But, you know, he played great right through until the US Open and then struggled a bit towards the end of the year. I know he had a problem with his wrist before I played him at Wimbledon. I think he had broken his wrist. But, yeah, he's a tough player. He's played well at Roland Garros before. I think this is kind of where he made his breakthrough, qualified or maybe lucky loser and made the fourth round against Roger.

SOUNDBITE (English) Andy Murray, defeated Nick Kyrgios 6-4, 6-2, 6-3:

(Q. You have had deep runs at this tournament before, but is this as good as you felt about your game on clay? Is your assessment of that or your confidence level on clay more a function of what the results have been and the winning streak you're on ?)

"Also physically, as well. I gave myself time to get used to the surface, and a surface I struggled with with my back for a few years and gave myself a proper training period, built it up slowly, and made a few changes to the way that I preferred for this clay court season. That was, I think, they are the things that I have changed and the things that have helped me."
