Andy Murray insists that revenge will not be on his mind when he faces Marin Cilic in the Australian Open semi-finals.
At the US Open back in September, Murray had been hoping to go one better than in 2008 when he reached the final. However Cilic ended his dreams with a shock straight sets defeat.
Murray subsequently revealed that a wrist injury had contributed to his poor performance against the Croatian rising star. However he insists that the loss is now firmly in the past.
"I was obviously disappointed about what happened at the US Open," Murray said. "I was feeling good going into it. It wasn't the way I would have liked to have lost. Everyone talks about that a lot, about revenge. But you just go out there and every day's a different day in tennis.”
"I think that I can win the match regardless of what happened at the US Open, if I play well, focus hard and concentrate, then there's no reason why I can't beat him again."
Cilic has spent more time on court than any of the other semi-finalists and he was keen to play down his chances of reaching the final.
"It's not easy when you come into these stages of a tournament where you didn't get to before too many times," he said. "It's not easy psychologically to be able to bring your best tennis when you need it.”
