The American tennis coach Nick Bollettieri wrote: ‘Fantastic effort by @andy_murray coming back after hip surgery and winning his 3rd consecutive 3 set match at the @CitiOpen.

‘Go Andy, this is what love for sport is!’ Judy Murray, Andy’s mum, wrote: ‘Brutal.’ Andy admitted he feels tired after long match: ‘Body doesn’t feel great right now; I’ve had a few long matches.

The weather has been tricky for the scheduling. But It’s a very difficult position to be coming back from a long injury to be finishing matches at 3 o’clock in the morning.

Brutal. https://t.co/VOyoj2mICU

By the time you finish doing recovery and everything it’s 5.30 or 6 o’clock in the morning.

I’ll try to sleep as late as I can but with your body clock you might get a few hours sleep. It’s like playing two matches in a day.’
