Under 22.5 Games
It is worth noting that Cazaux’s semi-final match against Koepfer lasted for 83 minutes, slightly longer than Murray’s match against Borges, which concluded in 74 minutes. The British ace finished his duel in 17 games while the French youngster needed 20 games to get past Koepfer. Given Murray’s results in tournament deciders, we expect this encounter to finish swiftly as well. He overcame Jurij Rodionov in 17 games at Surbiton to start celebrations early and will force a similar result against his 181-ranked rival to focus on the Queen’s Club Championship.
