Andy Murray has vowed to pick himself up from his crushing French Open defeat to Tomas Berdych in time for the defence of his AEGON Championships title.

An angry Murray was last night blown off a wet and windy Suzanne Lenglen Court in straight sets by Berdych after failing to come up with an answer to his opponent's raw power.






"I look forward to playing another tournament," said the world number four, who claimed his first ATP title on grass at Queen's last year.

"That's the good thing about tennis. I'm going to be very disappointed just now, but it's a different challenge in a week's time. You get to spend a lot of time at home in front of home support, and I look forward to the grasscourt season, regardless of what goes on off the court." The 23-year-old is relishing the prospect of returning to Queen's as defending champion as he begins his preparations for Wimbledon.

"I look forward to the whole grasscourt stretch. Queen's is a great tournament, it's got great history. To have won that last year was awesome. I'll just go back there and try to win againu00a0 and give it my best shot. I'll practise on the grass, get used to it again. That's it, work hard."

"I was very happy with the way I was hitting the ball this whole tournament. I was striking the ball very well again and feeling like I was moving well. And come the grass courts, I'm hoping that I'll play very well again."
