MELBOURNE – Britain’s Andy Murray put a brave face on his devastating Australian Open defeat to Novak Djokovic Sunday after seeing his best chance yet to win a major slip away in straight sets.
The out-of-sorts Murray said the 6-4, 6-2, 6-3 loss was easier to swallow than last year’s reverse against Roger Federer, when he broke down in tears at the presentation ceremony and took months to recover his form.
