Andy Murray booked his fifth straight Australian Open quarter-finals berth on Monday by beating Frenchman Stephane Robert to win 6-1, 6-2, 6-7 (6-8), 6-2.
Continuing his return from back surgery, which cut short his 2013 season, Murray dropped a set for the first time in the tournament and squandered four match points, but he made it through.
Murray went up a double break to lead 5-1 in the first set.
The second set was similar to the first with Murray grabbing an early double break and taking a 4-0 lead, The Herald Sun reports.
The third set was a tighter affair with Robert finding his touch, while Murray became frustrated and began berating himself.
