Andy Murray's quest for a third Miami Open title was ended by Grigor Dimitrov last night.
World number two Murray was 3-1 up in the final set, only to see that advantage evaporate as he was eventually beaten (1)6-7 6-4 6-3.
In total, the Scot made 55 unforced errors, many of which came to the fore during the decider when he was broken three times in a row.
"It's disappointing, that's for sure. I had time to prepare on the court and get used to the conditions, but I wasn't able to get on a good run," he told reporters.
"Grigor played some good stuff, too, but to lose your serve three times in a row from that position is obviously disappointing,"
Bulgaria's Dimitrov will now come up against Frenchman Gael Monfils in round four.
As for Murray, he has won just two ATP Tour matches since reaching the final of the Australian Open in January.
