Andy Murray has taken another step towards his goal of a first grand slam title with a comfortable win at Wimbledon.

Murray's second-round victory over Latvia's Ernests Gulbis came in the form of 6-2 7-5 6-3.

The Scot is aiming to be the first British men's winner since Fred Perry in 1936.

Murray sealed victory with a crunching forehand crosscourt winner after one hour and 28 minutes to the delight of the Centre Court crowd.

He will face either Serbia's Viktor Troicki or Spain's Daniel Gimeno Traver for a place in the fourth round.
