Video: Ball boy aids Andy Murray during point

Homeuncategorized

Andy Murray made it to the quarter-finals at Roland Garros yesterday... but not without the help of a young ball boy during a crucial point.

In the middle of the final set of Murray's sensational comeback win over Viktor Troicki at the French Open, a ball boy mistakenly ran onto the court during a point.

The youngster dashed onto the court as the Serb smashed the point-winning shot but, to his dismay, the umpire ordered them to replay the point which Murray won.

Murray ran out the eventual winner but not before Troicki became fired up over the ruling and won that particualr game.

Most say Troicki should have put the lad at ease after what happened. After all, he did look terrified. But what about Murray? Surely he could have given the point to his opponent in a sportsmanlike manner.
