GAME, SET AND MATCH! - MURRAY 6-2 2-6 4-6 6-2 6-3 BOURGUE. The world number two secures a second five-set victory in a row to see off the wildcard in just under three hours and 35 minutes on court. The Scot serves out to 30 and will be hoping to avoid another match going to the wire when he meets Karlovic next.

MURRAY 6-2 2-6 4-6 6-2 5-3 BOURGUE. The wildcard asks the question of the man 162 places above him with a tough hold to 30. Now, at the second time of asking, can Murray serve it out?

BREAK! - MURRAY 6-2 2-6 4-6 6-2 5-2 BOURGUE. That sums up the match really. Murray is serving for the match after two dominant sets and completely goes AWOL. Bourgue takes advantage and snares one break back to stay alive.

BREAK! - MURRAY 6-2 2-6 4-6 6-2 5-1 BOURGUE. It's all-but over! Bourgue fights back from 0-30 to move within a point of the game, but he looks spent. The legs aren't moving like they were and a lob helps Muzza to BP before a double fault gifts the Scot the double break. Murray will now serve for the match!

Elsewhere, there has been some French joy...

MURRAY 6-2 2-6 4-6 6-2 4-1 BOURGUE. Andy has found his form and with it his capability with the dropshot. A mini wobble is brushed aside from 40-0 as he holds to 30 to move within sight of a hard-fought triumph.

BREAK! - MURRAY 6-2 2-6 4-6 6-2 3-1 BOURGUE. Boos from the crowd but it's music to Murray's ears. The Scot plays a sublime dropshot to move 0-30 head and clinches a hugely significant break from 15-40. Muzza still looks like he has energy in reserve despite a second five-setter over the last few days.

Well, it has been surreal.

MURRAY 6-2 2-6 4-6 6-2 2-1 BOURGUE. The wildcard's forehand misfires on two key points to let allow Murray to come through a testing game to 30.

Both players hitting some great shots out there.

MURRAY 6-2 2-6 4-6 6-2 1-1 BOURGUE. Brilliant from Mathias. The Frenchman energises the crowd after it had looked bleak. A double fault at deuce gave Murray a BP, but the world 164 hit back and clinched the game with a stunning drop shot. Is there going to be another twist here?

-
MURRAY 6-2 2-6 4-6 6-2 1-0 BOURGUE. Muzza leads in the match for the first time in a while. It's a confident start from the Scot with his magnificent winner on the second point illustrating just how much he is song right now.
-
Andy in white now, of course...

SET! - MURRAY 6-2 2-6 4-6 6-2 BOURGUE. All square! Murray takes it into another fifth-set decider! The Scot breaks to love, producing some brilliant tennis to snare the triple break opportunity before a double fault from Bourgue. The momentum is with the Scot, can he keep it going?
