Andy Murray looking to keep up momentum as Wimbledon gets serious
The Scot moved into the third round with a straight sets win over Lu Yen-hsun on Thursday.
Andy Murray wants to keep his momentum going as Wimbledon moves into the latter rounds, with the Scot yet to drop a set at the tournament this year.
The Dunblane ace moved into the third round with a straight sets win over Lu Yen-hsun on Thursday, winning 17 of the last 20 games against the man from Chinese Taipei.
Murray now wants to keep that kind of form going, aiming to preserve his energy before the competition gets serious in the second week.
"I think the second and third sets, I played well," he said after the win on Centre Court.
"The first set was a tough set. Both of us had a bunch of chances, a lot of deuce games. Once I got that, got an early break in the second, I started to settle down, played better tennis. I finished the match really well.
"I've started well here quite a few times over the years. I don't know if this is the best one or not.
"But today was, for sure, a good match, an improvement from the first round, against a guy who has won a lot of matches on grass recently.
"I was just happy that I improved as the match went on. Hopefully I start the next match like I finished this one, keep it going."
Murray has been well and truly overshadowed by world number 772 Marcus Willis during the first week, while British number four Dan Evans now takes on Roger Federer.
Having the spotlight lifted a little off him is surely welcome, but Murray said: "I don't think it changes anything in my mind really.
"I've played here a number of times, sometimes when there's been big competitions going on elsewhere in different sports, sometimes when some of the other Brits have made deep runs, as well.
"But it makes absolutely zero difference to me, how I perform and how I play. When the attention's been on me a lot, I've played well. When it hasn't, I've also played well."
