Bad-tempered Murray down and out

Briton Andy Murray crashed out of the Stella Artois Championships with a
lacklustre 6-7 6-3 2-6 loss to Serbia's Janko Tipsarevic on Wednesday.

Murray, 19, the British number two, lost the first set 3-7 in a tie-break
but fought back to 5-2 and advantage before rain halted play on Tuesday.

On the resumption, Murray won the second set but fell away in the third
as he fought to control his emotions.

The Scot saved two match points but Tipsarevic maintained his grip to win.

Tipsarevic held his serve when the players returned at 1130 BST on
Wednesday but Murray, the world number 45, clinched the set to force a
decider, only to lose his own serve in the second game.

From then on, Tipsarevic grew in confidence as Murray, who was given a
code violation for foul language during the first-set tie-break, seemed to
fight an internal battle as the match slipped away.

He muttered, yelled and whacked the net with his racquet, while
Tipsarevic produced some authentic serve-and-volley tennis to overpower his
young opponent ranked 69 places above him in the world.

Murray said: "There's no point living in the past and I have to think
positively. I know I played well at Wimbledon last year and I know I can play
well on grass.

"I'm ranked in the world top 50 and I'm only 19 so I'm not worrying about
things right now. I just have to win some tighter matches and play more
consistently.

"Last year wasn't easy for me because I was very nervous and it was all
pretty new to me. Now there is a bit more expected of me because I did so
well."

Murray is still without a coach after firing Mark Petchey in April and has
been tentatively linked to American Brad Gilbert as part of a joint
initiative with the Lawn Tennis Association.

"I am obviously still looking for someone and it is not the easiest to find,"
said Murray.

"I think after Wimbledon and before Cincinnati and Toronto I should have
found a coach by then.

"Now for I have to go and take a bit of time to think about how I played and
what I need to do to make sure I improve on the things I did badly today."
