Murray's in no hurry to hire a coach

The Scot followed up his last-four victory over Rafael Nadal in Toronto with a 7-5 7-5 triumph over Roger Federer in the final on Sunday.

Swiss success
The victory ensured Murray's first success over the world's top two players in the same tournament and was only his second straight-sets win over the Swiss.

The triumph was all the more impressive given Murray parted company with coach Miles Maclagan last month. He has since reached two finals, losing to Sam Querrey in the Farmers Classic in Los Angeles before his success in Canada.

Murray now takes part in the Western and Southern Group Masters in Cincinnati before the US Open begins on August 30, and he will continue as he is, following his first tournament triumph of the year.

"I said at the start that I would like to have a coach, I think most players would like to have a coach," the 23-year-old told BBC Scotland.

"But I want to have the right person working with me and have the structure and set-up I would like. I'm not going to rush into anything.

"I'm sure after the US Open I will look hard at the type of person I would like to work with. But I can't see myself making any changes before the US Open."

Fed head-to-head
Murray, who has now won seven of his 12 meetings against Federer, admitted he had enjoyed being on court more than in recent months. Murray added: "I felt pretty free on court this week. I was going for my shots and when I wasn't in tough positions I felt a lot more comfortable -- I didn't feel I was on the defensive. You have to do that when you're playing probably the two best tennis players of all time. But I was able to dictate a lot of points against Rafa and Roger, and that hasn't always been the case."
