Murray believes it is due to his decision-making process which he believes could be as a result of off-court distractions.

“I think that’s one of the things – I’ve been through that at times through my career where mentally you’re not totally there and totally focused that one of the things that goes can be the shot selection in the important moments,’ Murray said of Novak Djokovic.

“The slightly wrong choices in the wrong moment… That’s the thing that Novak over his whole career but especially the last five, six years – he’s been better than anyone at that.

“Very rarely chooses the wrong option or wrong shot. Making the wrong choices – that’s not something you’d associate with him.

“This week [at the ATP Finals] and maybe through the French Open a bit, for me, as well.

“In the [French Open] final it felt like he was trying to shorten the points quite a lot and then the same this week.”
