Focused Murray ready for grass-court expert Tsonga

Britain's Andy Murray says he needs to remain focused as he prepares to take on Jo-Wilfried Tsonga in the men's quarter-finals at Wimbledon.

Second seed Murray has yet to drop a set at this year's tournament and the 2013 champion is the highest-seeded player remaining in the men's draw.

But the 29-year-old described Frenchman Tsonga as "one of the best grass-court players in the world".

"If he plays well, I'm not on my game, I can lose that match," said Murray.
