Andy Murray Beats Gael Monfils To Reach French Open Semis




The Briton let a two-set lead slip but raced through the fifth to win 6-4 6-1 4-6 1-6 6-0 in near darkness at 21:40 local time.
Murray goes on to face eight-time champion Rafael Nadal in a repeat of the 2011 semi-final.
Nadal fought back to beat fellow Spaniard and fifth seed David Ferrer 4-6 6-4 6-0 6-1.
"It was a hard match," said Murray.
"Conditions changed quite a lot during it. It was extremely windy in the beginning, and then it was

pretty calm at the end and very slow.
"It was obviously very cold at the end of the match. He really raised his game in the third set.

"I thought I played a pretty good third set. The fourth set wasn't my best, but it was a fun match."
