World number four Andy Murray remains hopeful of a trophy at the French Open regardless of his not-so-ideal surface, according to ESPN. Murray’s coach Ivan Lendl has stressed that Murray has what it takes to win the tournament although the player is not a big fan of clay. He reached the semi-finals of the French Open last year before losing in three sets to Rafael Nadal but before that contest he had only lost two sets at the event. “I have to believe that I can win the French Open,” Murray told the Times. “I was going to say that I have to agree with everything Lendl says but I don’t. Last year gave me a lot of confidence and I still feel like I could have played better.”
