AFP: World number one Andy Murray’s slump in form continued with a 6-3, 6-3 defeat to lucky loser Borna Coric in the third round of the Madrid Masters on Thursday.

Murray has now failed to reach the quarter-finals in any of his last three Masters series events as well as suffering a shock fourth round exit at the Australian Open to Mischa Zverev in January.

World number 59 Coric, handed a reprieve to enter the draw despite losing in qualifying to Mikhail Kukushkin, will face either Grigor Dimitrov or Dominic Thiem in Friday’s quarter-finals.
