Murray hopes coach sacking will energize his game (29/7/2010)
World number four Andy Murray says he sacked his coach Miles Maclagan because they no longer saw eye-to-eye and he needed to do something to help galvanize his game.
Murray fired Maclagan this week after two-and-a-half years of working together. The surprise move comes just four weeks before the start of the US Open.
"It obviously was a hard decision and one that wasn't the nicest thing to have to take," Murray said Wednesday in between practice rounds at the ATP Los Angeles tournament. "It wasn't that tough to make up my mind because we were quite far apart in what we thought."
It has been a season of mixed results for the 23-year-old Scot who is the top seed at the Farmers Classic. This is his first tournament since his Wimbledon semi-final loss to Rafael Nadal.
