ANDY Murray improved his record to 21-0 since the US Open by beating Jeremy Chardy of France 6-2, 6-4 yesterday and advanced to the third round at the Paris Masters.
The second-seeded Briton, who last lost to Rafael Nadal in the US Open semifinals but has won 26 of 27 matches since mid-August, jumped out to a 4-0 lead in the first set. In the second set, Murray broke Chardy early and held on to win when a backhand volley from the Frenchman sailed wide.
Murray will next face Andy Roddick of the United States.

The Spaniard clinched victory on an unforced error.
The 11th-seeded Tipsarevic defeated Alex Bogomolov Jr. of the United States 6-1, 6-0.
Bogomolov took the opening game before losing 12 in a row.
