"Happy with the way I got through that one, it was not easy" - Murray after beating Cerundolo

Andy Murray played a very solid match to beat an erratic Francisco Cerundolo in New York in straight sets and move on to the US Open.

The Brit was very worried about the conditions in New York ahead of this event as he battled cramps this year more than once. It cost him a couple of wins as well but he handled it really well winning in three sets. He did mention the tricky conditions once more:

"It was very tricky conditions today. Very humid and hot. I am very happy with the way I got through that one, it was not easy. He has had a brilliant year this year and I knew I had to play well and I did in the important moments."
