MURRAY IN LAST 16

The British number one, Andy Murray will face Stanislas Wawrinka in Monday's fourth round after winning a comfortable 6-2 6-3 6-4 win against Viktor Troicki in one hour 36 minutes on Centre Court.

Murray broke for the first time at 3-2 and Troicki crumbled, losing seven games in a row as the world number three almost toyed with his opponent.

Murray faced one break point in the entire match, saving it with an ace.

The match was played under leaden skies, but despite thunderstorms in the Wimbledon area, the rain never came - and Centre Court's new roof is still awaiting its competitive debut after six days of action.

"Obviously I wanted to finish the match as quickly as possible," said the 22-year-old. "It would have been a nice bit of history, but I wasn't that worried by it."

Murray pleased with opening week

The roof was immediately shut after the players went off, whereupon Murray told BBC Sport he felt he had not peaked yet.

"I have to give myself an A for coming through the first week," he said. "Today was very good. I felt a little bit uncomfortable at the start, but after the first set I started to feel more comfortable.

"I've got to be happy with the first week - I felt better and better with every match. But I'm going to have to play better next week if I want to come away with the title."

Murray's hopes of making his second Grand Slam final received a boost later on Saturday when Fernando Gonzalez, his conqueror at this year's French Open and a possible quarter-final opponent here, was beaten in five sets by Juan Carlos Ferrero.

But on this form, Murray has no-one to fear.

Troicki had won just one game in his last encounter against Murray at the Miami Masters, a tournament the Scot went on to win.

Murray consider this match to be far better than the previous one in this tournament and it will be a good sign for the forth coming matches.
