Beaten German Philipp Kohlschreiber has applauded Andy Murray's fighting qualities after their epic third round encounter at the French Open.
The pair's match was suspended last night when locked at 7-7 in the fifth set because of bad light in Paris and, upon resumption today, Murray won through 12-10 to reach the fourth round.
"I just tried to hang in," said Kohlschreiber, who fell short of equalling his best-ever run at Roland Garros.
"I had a very good feeling that the momentum was maybe a little bit more my side yesterday night. But overall I saw many matches from him. He's a huge fighter. He never gives up."
Murray will now face Fernando Verdasco of Spain in the last 16.
