The French Open is buzzing with much excitement and, for the men's segment, Andy Murray is prepping up to not let veteran Radek Stepanek gets the better hand. Also, with the game's fire filling the arena, the fight has just begun.
Given the fact that the proposed first game was suspended, both players are taking the time off to think and counter the best possible tennis play to outwit each other. World number two Murray, who beat Novak Djokovic to win the Italian Open in his last match, lost the first two sets to the 37-year-old Czech qualifier, and the Briton won the third set and was ahead 4-2 in the fourth when the duo were called off at 20:22 BST, reports BBC.
In addition, Stepanek was the one that got the lead, 6-3 6-3 0-6 2-4, with the match resuming at 11:30 on Tuesday and, since Murray has not lost in the first round of a Grand Slam tournament since the 2008 Australian Open, the present scenario might propel him to break his own record. Time and strategy are among the noted elements that were seen in the game.
Furthermore, even Murray's coach revealed of how complex Murray's character could be while in the court. Despite the challenging game time with Stepanek, Murray was able to counter the challenges and eventually see through Stepanek's tactics and resolve.
Andy Murray winning the game is clear indicator of the tennis World Number 2 dedication to keeping his legacy in the top.
