Murray targets second week appearance in France

 

Andy Murray has targeted a place in week two of the French Open next week ? despite drawing clay specialist Juan Ignacio Chela in the first round.

The British number one ? now up to third in the world rankings ? has never progressed beyond the third round at Roland Garros but has set himself a minimum fourth round appearance.

Chela has a good record against Murray, beating him in straight sets 6-1, 6-3, 6-3 in the 2006 Australian Open.

But the Scot said: "He's obviously a tough clay court player but I'm pretty confident of doing well.

"I want to try and get to the second week and that will be my aim going to Roland Garros, that's a starting point for me.


"On clay I feel like I have to play tough tennis from the start and play some of my best to win all the matches."
