Andy Murray says 'demoralising' Monte Carlo defeat to Alex De Minaur was one of the worst of his career
Andy Murray says he put in one of the worst performances of his career in a «demoralising» first-round Monte Carlo Masters defeat to Alex De Minaur.

Ad Murray’s miserable display sealed back-to-back first-round tournament exits, following a straight-sets loss to Dusan Lajovic at the Miami Open, and he was furious with his efforts in Monaco.
