Andy Murray: Five-time champion Andy Murray earned victory in his 1000th tour-level match when he overcame Alexei Popyrin 6-3, 3-6, 6-3 at the Queen's Club Championships.

In the process, Murray has made history after becoming the first British tennis player in the Open Era to have played 1000 ATP tour-level matches.

"I didn't realise, but my mum told me before the match that this was my 1000th match on the Tour. A lot of matches and a lot of wear and tear in the body and it is not easy but I managed to push through," Murray said in his on-court interview.
