Andy Murray: 'Experience sparked comeback'

Andy Murray says that his experience helped him fight back to beat Fernando Verdasco at Wimbledon.

World number two Andy Murray believes that it was his experience that helped him book a place in the semi-finals of Wimbledon after a victory over Fernando Verdasco.

The Scot recovered from two sets down to earn a thrilling 4-6 3-6 6-1 6-4 7-5 win against the Spaniard in the last eight of the tournament.

Murray feels that he has learned how to overcome deficits such as the one he found himself facing against Verdasco.

"It was a tough situation," Murray told the official Wimbledon website. "The second set was a bad set of tennis for me. I was 3‑1 up and then made some bad mistakes, poor choices on the court. Then I turned it round really well after that.

"I think when you play more and more matches and gain more experience you understand how to turn matches around and how to change the momentum of games. That can be tactical and sometimes it can be your opponent.

"But often, you need to be the one making the change. Maybe when I was younger I could have lost that match. But I think I've learnt, yeah, how to come back from tough situations more as I got older."

Murray will face Jerzy Janowicz in the semi-finals on Friday.
