Andy Murray will play World Number One Novak Djokovic in a US Open quarter-final match on Wednesday, and believes he is close to playing his best tennis after beating Frenchman Jo-Wilfried Tsonga on Tuesday.

Murray beat Tsonga 7-5 7-5 6-4 to set up a meeting with world number one Novak Djokovic, reports the BBC.

Murray, 27, will go into that match on the back his first win over a top-10 player in 14 months.

Murray had not beaten a top-10 player since last year's Wimbledon final until Tuesday, and had let a number of strong positions slip away in recent matches, including against Tsonga in Canada last month.
