Heat on for Murray's semi-final bid

Jul 1 2009

The mercury continues rising as Andy Murray prepares to fight for a place in his first ever Wimbledon semi-final.

Murray said he "loved" playing under the new roof but, with forecasters predicting a hot and sunny day, the canopy is unlikely to be shut for a second time.

The 22-year-old Scot criticised the humidity under the state-of-the-art roof after his epic five-set battle against Stanislas Wawrinka on Monday night, saying it felt like playing in a bath.
