Andy Murray eased into the third round of the Hamburg Masters with comfortable 6-3 6-3 victory over Gilles Simon.

Murray got off to a fast start by breaking Simon in the opening game. Andy broke again four games later to lead 4-1 but ended losing serve for 4-3. Two games and a break later the set was Murray's.

The second set went with serve until at 3-3 all: Andy lost has first service point but then won the next eight points to leave himself in in a position to serve for the match. Suddenly, the 20 year old foulnd himself down three break points. But Murray, to his credit, saved them all and finished the match off.

His next opponent is world number two, Rafael Nadal, who beat Potito Starace.

Murray's match reactionIt was a very good win.

He's beaten a lot of top guys on clay and is a very tough clay-court player. I was happy to finish it off so professionally.

he got some great depth on his ground strokes today and was aggressive at the right times. the drop shots were better than usual too!

apparently simon was getting distracted by the euro-pop being played on the other court!  LOL

rafa is a set and a break up so i can only see one winner there

bring on the sweaty little wedgy maestro then!
