Andy Murray is out of Monte Carlo As the build-up to the French Open intensified, it was a stark reminder for Murray of the world No 7s prowess on his favoured surface - although the Brit was repeatedly frustrated at the umpires generosity at Nadals time-keeping. Murray had won their previous clay court match, in last years Madrid Open final, but despite a positive start he was outmanoeuvred by the eight-time Monte Carlo champion who will now have a chance to win a ninth title.
