Murray hopeful of advantage in Miami

Andy Murray has admitted that the Miami Masters feels like a "home away from home" as he prepares to play his second-round match against Donald Young.

The British number one spends his off-season practising in Florida, and the two-time Grand Slam winner is hopeful that his knowledge of the surroundings can help him as he attempts to win a third title at the event.

The 27-year-old told Sky Sports News: "I practise on the centre court here during the off-season so this is like a home away from home for me. I always enjoy coming back here.

"Because I spend a lot of time here and put in so much work, I feel comfortable here, know about the speed of the court and what the conditions can be like. Hopefully that can give me a bit of an advantage."

Murray reached the last four at Indian Wells last week before losing to world number one Novak Djokovic.
