Amélie Mauresmo prefers not to talk about Andy Murray’s sore right shoulder but, on the eve of his eighth-straight Wimbledon quarter-final, she is happy to confirm he is in far better shape than when he lost so abjectly to Grigor Dimitrov at the same stage a year ago.
Murray still has to tape the shoulder – which required courtside treatment after it gave up on him with exquisite timing in his tense match against Andreas Seppi on Saturday – and hopes he can ramp up the power on his serve against the Canadian Vasek Pospisil on Wednesday.
