Andy Murray is the last British player left in the men's singles at the Surbiton Trophy

Britain's Andy Murray came back from a set down to beat Jason Kubler and reach the semi-finals at the Surbiton Trophy.

Murray, 36, won 3-6 6-3 6-4 to set up a match with 2022 champion Jordan Thompson of Australia.

Second seed Murray is the last remaining seeded player left in the tournament in Surrey.

Three-time Grand Slam champion Murray skipped the French Open to focus on the grass-court season and hopes to be seeded at next month's Wimbledon.

"I knew it was going to be hard," said Murray. "He played well and has a lot of variety in his game and was one of the best juniors in the world but has had some problems with injuries.

"I did fine, it was very windy and gusty a lot so tough to feel great when it is like that but I did well in the important moments.

"Most of the tournaments you play on tour are in purpose-built facilities whereas coming here, you all love tennis and are probably members, so it's always nice to play at clubs like this.
