Murray beats Edmund to reach semis

Andy Murray is two wins away from clinching the Aegon Championship title at Queen's for a historic fifth time.

The world number two secured a place in the semi-finals in London after beating his fellow Brit Kyle Edmund 6-4 3-6 6-1 on Friday.

Edmund matched his Davis Cup teammate well in the first set when he broke back instantly after losing serve, but Murray broke again to take a one-set lead in 39 minutes.

The two-time Grand Slam champion failed to carry his momentum in the second, though, as Edmund sealed a double break to give himself a 4-2 lead, nullifying Murray's break.

Edmund pushed the clash into a third and deciding set, but Murray found his feet once again as he raced to a 5-0 lead.

The 2013 Wimbledon champion managed to wrap up the set in just 30 minutes, and now his attention turns to a semi-final clash against Marin Cilic.
