British teenager Murray races into third round
September 1, 2006
NEW YORK (Reuters) – British teenager Andy Murray raced
into the third round of the U.S. Open on Friday with a 6-0 6-1
6-1 hammering of Italian Alessio Di Mauro.
The 17th-seeded Scot needed just 74 minutes to advance to
the last 32 for the first time, setting up a clash with Chilean
10th seed Fernando Gonzalez.
Murray was beaten by Di Mauro in a Challenger Tour event in
2005 but on Friday, he lost just seven points in a first set
that lasted 19 minutes.
Di Mauro did not have the power to trouble Murray and the
19-year-old battered 34 winners to clinch victory.
