Murray inspired by Agassi emotion

Britain's Andy Murray says he drew on Andre Agassi's emotional exit from the US Open to beat Fernando Gonzalez.

Murray had to dig deep to see off the Chilean 10th seed and said: "Before I went on I saw Agassi play his last match, and it inspired me.

"I didn't realise how much he meant to tennis and to me growing up until I saw him play his last point."

The 19-year-old Scot, who faces seventh seed Nikolay Davydenko on Tuesday, said: "It will be a pretty tough task."

Murray is doing rather well at the moment.

I was wathcing the match yesterday and his Chilean opponent got so frustated that he committed racket abuse, start hitting the ball out of the court and argued with the judge.

Murray is a different class of player to Henman thats for sure.
