- Boulter reaches second round for first time in career
Andy Murray confidently moved into the second round of the US Open with a strong 6-2, 7-5, 6-3 victory over Corentin Moutet, despite an arduous, physical battle that lasted over three hours.
“It was a long one, but the way that we play, it was probably always going to be like that,” said Murray, smiling. “Three hours was probably a lot shorter than some of my matches this year so pleased to get it done.”
