Delbonis Shocks Murray

Federico Delbonis of Argentina notched the biggest win of his career Monday at the BNP Paribas Open. The 25-year-old Argentine knocked off a sluggish Andy Murray 6-4, 4-6, 7-6(3).

Murray, the No. 2 seed, was playing in his second match since the Australian Open in January and in his first ATP World Tour event since becoming a father. But Delbonis cut him no slack, winning 70 per cent of his first-serve points and hitting 31 winners.

The Argentine’s biggest win prior had been a 2013 victory over then-No. 5 Roger Federer. Delbonis, No. 53 in the Emirates ATP Rankings, also improved to 3-5 lifetime against Top 10 opponents. He’ll next face either Gael Monfils of France or Albert Ramos-Vinolas of Spain.
