Andy Murray is out of the Qatar Open after Roberto Bautista Agut cruised to a 6-0 6-1 win in their last 16 match on Wednesday.

The Scot made a statement against Taro Daniel in the last round, putting right the defeat to the Japanese player at last month’s Australian Open in the second round, but could not get anything going against Bautista Agut in a one-sided match in Doha.

Murray’s last match against the Spaniard came in that marathon five-set win at the Australian Open three years ago, but the 34-year-old was unable to put up a fight this time around as he lost his serve three times in the opening set as Bautista Agut served up an opening bagel.

Bautista Agut, the tournament’s second seed and world No 17, continued to dominate into the second set and although Murray was able to secure an opening hold, the Spaniard raced clear to convert two further break points and seal the win in a little over an hour.

Murray slammed his racket as his tournament came to a close and the former Wimbledon champion will hope for a longer run at the Dubai Duty Free Championships next week.

Murray 0-6 1-3 Bautista Agut* - Bautista Agut breaks

That’s better from Murray, as the Scot finds a succession of first serves to move to 40-0. A couple of loose forehands bring Bautista Agut back into it, however.

It brings up the first break point of the second set and after some brilliant defence from the Spaniard, Bautista Agut slips and Murray can hit the winner into the open court.
