Andy Murray pledges to return to Wimbledon despite thumping second round defeat

Andy Murray insists he's not done with Wimbledon despite being blasted off centre court in the second round for the first time in his career.

The two-time champion had little resistance to the sheer power of serve from the giant American John Isner who fired 36 aces on his way to a four set win. Asked whether he still believes he can compete at the highest level, the Scot was adamant he's not given a thought to hanging up his racket and he believes he could, and should have progressed at SW19 and this is not the end.

Murray said: "This year my game is in a better place. I could have had a good run here. It's one of those matches that had I managed to get through then who knows what could have happened. It depends on how I am physically and if I feel good then I'll try to keep playing. It's difficult to make long term predictions as who knows how I'll be in a few weeks time, never mind next year.
