Murray through to first clay final

Britain's Andy Murray won two matches within a matter of hours to reach the first clay-court final of his career at the Munich Open.

The top-seeded Scot's quarter-final against Lukas Rosol got under way at 10:00 local time on Saturday after rain had washed out Friday's play.

He won 4-6 6-3 6-2, and then returned less than three hours later to beat Roberto Bautista Agut 6-4 6-4.

Murray is scheduled to play doubles later on Saturday.

The world number three's day began with a testing encounter against Czech Rosol, who reeled off five games in a row to take the first set.
