Slowly but surely Andy Murray is scratching his name alongside the all-time grass-court greats on Wimbledon's hallowed lawns.
The Scot, who ended Britain's 77-year wait for a Wimbledon men's champion in 2013, a year after winning Olympic gold on Centre Court, notched a 51st Wimbledon match victory by fighting off Frenchman Jo-Wilfried Tsonga in dramatic fashion on Wednesday.
It moved him into a tie for seventh on the all-time list of men's singles matches won here, alongside five-time champion Bjorn Borg, and put him into a seventh semifinal at the All England Club - the same number as his coach, Ivan Lendl, and world No 1 Novak Djokovic.
