Wonder which one of those they think Murray is from?
Bit of a strange match really. Decent contest between them in the first set, but once Murray broke to win the set (having failed to serve out at 5-3), Stepanek's level just totally fell away, and Murray's dropped as well.
Still, a very straightforward win and he got the job done quickly, which he needed to do if he wants to win back to back events.
