Murray takes title for second time


TENNIS — WIMBLEDON Monday, July 11, 2016 Murray takes title for second timeFeisty Scot triumphs in three sets over Canadian Raonic to rewrite record booksLONDON — Cometh the hour, cometh the man — Andy Murray proved himself the bastion of British tennis once again as he outclassed Canadian powerhouse Milos Raonic to claim a second Wimbledon title in masterful fashion yesterday. That created its own pressure but Murray hid it well in a near-faultless two hours 48 minutes in the Centre Court sunshine as he added a second Wimbledon crown to his 2012 US Open title and gold medal from the London Olympics. It was more comfortable than the scoreline suggested as a razor-sharp Murray dictated play from start to finish. Murray only broke serve once but always seemed in control as the Canadian struggled to apply any sustained pressure. Raonic held to stay alive at 4-5 and 5-6 but rock solid Murray was relentless, winning the first five points of the day’s second tiebreak and wrapping it up without any drama.
