Murray lost the first set 6-2 but hit back to level the match by winning the second 6-4, and it seemed that victory was inevitable when he took a 3-0 lead in the third set. However, the world No17 consistently clawed his way back when he appeared on the brink of defeat and eventually the match went to a tie-break before the Scot won 2-6, 6-4, 7-6 (8/6).
The match lasted almost three hours and left Murray, who will return to No2 in the world after Roger Federer's surprise defeat, little time to recover before his last-eight match on Friday with Tomas Berdych.
