Andy Murray has continued his good form to reach the third round of the Cincinnati Masters.

The British number one beat Sam Querrey 7-6 (7-3) 6-1, going a break down before clawing his way back and then racing through the second set.

"I've played a lot of matches and physically I feel good. I'm chasing a lot of balls down, I feel fast on the court and I'm hitting the ball harder" - Andy Murray

The 21-year-old Scot will have high hopes for the tournament after reaching the semi-finals in Toronto last week, claiming a first win over Novak Djokovic before losing out to Rafael Nadal with a creditable performance.

Murray shrugged off concerns over a persistent knee injury.

He said: "I've played a lot of matches and physically I feel good. I'm chasing a lot of balls down, I feel fast on the court and I'm hitting the ball harder."
