Andy Murray: The Struggling Englishman looks for his first win since October.

Andy Murray is considering stepping up and playing in the Challenger after losing six straight matches on the ATP Tour. The former world number one lost to 66th-ranked Tomasz Makhach at the Open 13 Provence tournament in Marseille, 7-5, 6-4. The Scot, who turns 37 in May, last won last October. This was their only win in their last 10 away games. "The only way is to go out on the court and find a way to win the game," said the three-time Grand Slam winner. “You can try on the training ground, but what happens on the training ground doesn't always translate to the game. You have to go out there and try to find a way to overcome it. Maybe you need to level down and play Challenger to build your confidence.

The Scot insisted on social media last week: "I'm not leaving" after claiming his current appearance could tarnish his legacy. "Now, a few losses won't change what I've achieved in my career," he said.

Murray, who won the second-tier challenger tournaments held in Surbiton and Nottingham in preparation for Wimbledon last summer, will take part in the Qatar Open held in Doha on February 19. Meanwhile, at the Abu Dhabi Open, Heather Watson claimed her best win of 2017, defeating Russian world number 16 Veronika Kudermetova 6-3 7-5.

Emma Radukanu will be looking to progress to her first quarter-final of the season today and defeat a top 10 player for the first time when she takes on Tunisia's Ons Jabour. "He's definitely the home favorite here and rightfully so," said the 2021 US Open winner.

Radukanu sets up her meeting with Jaber after defeating Marie Buuzkova in the first round of the Abu Dhabi Open. This is their first meeting since their Australian Open loss. She has won 10 of her last 11 bouts against Buuzkova, outscoring her opponent 6-4 6-1. Now he dreams of making a statement about one of the game's most important players in the form of Jebeur.
