Murray sets sights on French Open title

Andy Murray believes he can become the first British winner of the French Open since Fred Perry in 1935 as he prepares to face Stan Wawrinka in the last four.

Murray, 29, plays the defending champion from Switzerland on Philippe Chatrier after 14:00 BST on Friday.

"I believe I can win the event. It's possible and only a couple of matches away now. I'll just give everything I've got the next few days," he said.

World number one Novak Djokovic plays Dominic Thiem in the other semi-final.

In the women's draw, Serena Williams takes on Kiki Bertens and Garbine Muguruza plays Sam Stosur, with both matches getting under way at 12:00.
