Andy Murray saved five match points against Lehecka to secure the Doha final where he will face Daniil Medvedev later today and he was speechless.

Murray has been battling since the season started and most of his wins were very hard-fought victories. He saved match points in many of them and this was no different. After wasting two match points on Murray's serve, Lehecka then had 40-0 on his serve but failed to use those three as well.

Speaking after the match, Murray was unsure what to say:

"Yeah, I mean, I just can't believe I managed — I don't know how I managed to turn that match around. I mean, I actually, in the 5-4 game, I think I played most of the match points really well. You know, he missed one bad shot on the deuce point in that game at 5-4, but, you know, played the match points pretty well."

He added:

"Then, yeah, the tiebreak was very back-and-forth, as well. Just managed to come up with, you know, a great serve on the 6-all point. Although he probably should have made the volley on the match point, like, I hit a pretty tricky return off what was, you know, a great serve."
