Henman: 'Murray loss is devastating'

Former British number one Tim Henman has described Andy Murray's defeat to Roger Federer in the Wimbledon final as a "devastating loss".

Despite taking the opening set in confident fashion, Murray eventually went down 6-4 5-7 3-6 4-6 to the seven-time champion on Centre Court.

"It is a devastating loss," Henman told BBC Sport. "First and foremost, congratulations to Roger Federer. It was crucial that he won the second set and, when the roof closed it favoured Federer as his indoor record would benefit him. His third and fourth sets were faultless."

Murray has now lost all four of the Grand Slam finals that he has played in.
