Andy Murray targets Wimbledon 2015 after fourth Queen’s triumph

Andy Murray has set his sights on reclaiming the Wimbledon crown after he saw off Kevin Anderson in straight sets to take his fourth Queen’s Club Championship title.

The Olympic champion first won the title in 2009 and victories in 2011 and 2013 followed before seeing off South African Anderson 6-3 6-4 in today’s final.

It was Murray’s second victory of the day after his semi-final with Viktor Troicki was rained off on Saturday, leaving the Scot the finish the Serbian off on Sunday morning 6-3 7-6 (7-4).

Big-server Anderson was to provide a different test for Murray after he impressively beat Giles Simon to earn spot in the final but Murray was rarely troubled as he came through in just 64 minutes.

And, after a long and fruitful clay season, Murray believes the week has set him up perfectly for the All England and is hopeful he can carry his form with him to SW 19.

“I played better as the week went on and hopefully I can continue that into Wimbledon,” he said.

“I tried to play each point and come up with some great shots. I had to play that way if I wanted to win today.”
