Even though Andy Murray hasn’t won a single tournament in 2021, his gameplay has improved to a great extent. It is because of this reason that many fans are backing him ahead of the upcoming ATP 1000 Masters tournament in Paris, especially after his win against Hubert Hurkacz at the Vienna Open 2021.
