Andy Murray: 'I've moved on from Wimbledon loss to Grigor Dimitrov'

Andy Murray insists that his Wimbledon disappointment will not be on his mind when he takes on Grigor Dimitrov at the Australian Open.

Andy Murray has insisted that he has moved on from the defeat to Grigor Dimitrov in last year's Wimbledon quarter-finals ahead of his meeting with the Bulgarian at the Australian Open.

Dimitrov recorded a straight-sets win last summer to end Murray's hopes of successive titles at Wimbledon, but the British number one claims that the loss will not be on his mind when the two players meet in the fourth round in Melbourne.

"I try to look forward," Murray, who beat Dimitrov in their most recent meeting at the Paris Masters in November, told BBC Sport. "It happens in every job, every part of life - sometimes you have bad days.

"I don't feel like I played my best tennis that day. The first week of Wimbledon I played some really good tennis, it was just unfortunate.

"I've trained hard, I've prepared well to get ready for this event and this year. I feel like I've played some good tennis so far. Hopefully I'll do the same on Sunday."

Murray has won four of his six matches against Dimitrov, who is looking to reach the Australian Open quarter-finals for the second year in a row.
