Andy Murray dragged his way through a drama-filled encounter against a wilting Matteo Berrettini to reach the second round of the Miami Open on Wednesday.
The former world No 1 wrote on the court-side TV camera that there is 'life in the old dog yet' after pulling off an impressive comeback victory. He has had plenty of joy in Miami since making his debut 18 years ago, winning in 2009 and 2013, and is dreaming of one more shot at glory on his swansong appearance.
'The doctor came on and took his blood pressure, he took plenty of supplements and chocolate bars, but he looked very dizzy and unstable. 'Murray slowly gained the advantage and once you see your opponent wobbling like that, literally, you have to make sure you really focus and you don't give up any cheap points. 'He got the momentum in the third set, and there is certainly life in the old dog yet.
