Murray beats Berrer to reach the fourth round of French Open

Andy Murray recovered from a dramatic fall to beat Germany's Michael Berrer in straight sets and reach the fourth round of the French Open.



The world number four rolled his ankle chasing down a drop shot early in the second set and looked in desperate pain as he lay on the court, head in hands, before hobbling to his chair for treatment.



Murray had taken control of the match early on but his hopes for Roland Garros, and perhaps beyond, appeared in the balance as the trainer spent eight minutes strapping the Scot's right ankle.



But despite continuing to limp between points, and repeatedly grimace and look to his player's box, Murray moved well enough on his return to the action and a new tactic of going for his shots paid off as he raced to a 6-2 6-3 6-2 victory in two hours and seven minutes.
