Andy Murray Beats Federer at Dubai Championship

Andy Murray won the match against Roger Federer in the first round of the Dubai Championship (6-7(6-8),6-3,6-4).

In his last match against Federer in 2006 Murray also claimed victory.

Perhaps there is something about Murray that Federer just cannot quite figure out. Federer is experiencing a bit of bad run. This was his second loss in a row, having last lost to Djokovic in the Australian Open semi-final.

Federer blames himself for making mistakes in the match, and says Murray hasn't really changed his game since they first played against each other in the 2005 Thailand Open. He says Murray stays too far behind and spends too much time waiting for his opponent's misses than looking to win a point.

Murray says he has to do different things against different players. He feels he is serving better and moving quicker. He thinks that mentally he has improved. Part of his training now involves the practice of Bikram yoga.
