Murray: 'Robson will go far'

Andy Murray has tipped Laura Robson for future glory following her surprise win over Kim Clijsters at the US Open.

The Scot described the teenage sensation as one of the "best in the world for her age" following her 7-6 7-6 victory against the three-time champion.

"There are not many teenagers in the top 100 compared with what there used to be and she's right up there with the best in the world for her age," The Mirror quotes Murray as saying.

"If she keeps improving, she's going to get very high."

Robson will face China's Li Na in round three of the US Open, while Murray takes on Feliciano Lopez.
