Andy Murray the British number one. Andy Murray got back to winning ways despite an uneven showed against David Nalbandian in the 2nd round of the Western and Southern Open in Cincinnnati.
Giving a bye in round 1 as the 4th seed, had lost his opening match in montreal last week but responed with a 6-4 6-1 victory.
Aside from the Davis Cup, Murray's last victiry came in the quarter finals of Wimbledon and he had played poorly in loosing to Kevin Anderson in Montreal last week, so any sort of win over Nalbandian was to be welcomed by the scot.
Murray faileed to capitalies on 8 break points before finally converting his 9th to get back level terms , only to drop serve once again, and then recover immediately in a set of wildly fluctuating fortunes.It was Murray who steadied himself the better of the two though, breaking once again on his way to clinching the 1st set seemingly ending Nalbandians resistanse by moving 2-0 clear in the 2nd.
With the finish line now approching, Murray began to really find his range on the return, fring a couple of blistering winners as he broke Nalbandian for a 6th time before serving out the victory. In other matches,7th seed Mardy Fish of the USA thrashed Nikolay Davydenko 6-0 6-2, and France's 6th seed Gael Monfils led Ivan Doding 4-6 6-3 4-0 When the croatian retired.
