LONDON -- Just under a year ago, Jamie Murray suffered a heartbreaking early exit at the Tour Finals when the Bryan brothers saved five match points to seal a thrilling comeback win over the Scot and then-partner John Peers.I thought about it [the 2015 match] in the changeover in the last game. A lot of people come up and ask me about that still, Murray admitted on Tuesday afternoon.He had just gained a measure of revenge by securing a 6-3, 6-4 win with Bruno Soares against the American duo -- whom he described going into the match as the greatest team in history.So it was no surprise the Australian Open and US Open winners agreed with the suggestion it was one of their best wins ever.Well, yeah, I think so, Murray told a news conference. We certainly played a great match, I mean, from start to finish. Probably one of our best matches of the year. We served really well throughout, cleaned up well on our serves.We had a good game plan to play against them. We executed it really well. We both returned the ball smartly, put it in some difficult spots for them, then were really active around the net.Were both super pumped about the win. Should have a good chance to progress further in the tournament now.Next up are Marcelo Melo and Ivan Dodig on Thursday, with Murray and Soares looking to make it three wins from three in their group.Just like his younger brother Andy in the singles rankings, Jamie is chasing the year-end doubles No. 1 spot.He has to keep winning, like us, Jamie said of Andy, who opened his Tour Finals campaign with a win over Marin Cilic on Monday evening.That makes things easier for everyone. Im sure hes super motivated. He seemed like it in the match yesterday. Right from the beginning, he seemed pretty fired up. He was pretty positive throughout the match.For him to finish No. 1, thats his goal. Im sure its been the last few years. He does have a genuine chance to do it this year. Hes put himself in a good position. What an achievement it would be if he does do it.Were both focusing on our things. Our goals for the week Im sure are the same: to try to win, do the best we can. I dont imagine well be seeing each other that much till the weekend, if were both there.

MARSEILLE, France -- For organizers at a tournament like the European Championship, the less talk there is about the pitch, the better.Thats not the case this year.As the quarterfinals begin, worries about the playing surfaces persist. Portugal coach Fernando Santos is concerned that the state of the grass at Marseilles Stade Velodrome could mean less of a spectacle when his team faces Poland on Thursday.France coach Didier Deschamps went as far as to call the Marseille pitch a disaster after players slipped during his teams group stage win over Albania. Even though it has been eight days since the last game in Marseille, neither Portugal nor Poland trained on the pitch Wednesday.I dont know if its in top shape but Ive heard that its better, Santos said through an interpreter. If the pitch itself is good, both teams will be helped because theyre very technical teams . We play football on the ground, we play a fast game, both teams do.The Marseille stadium hosted an AC/DC rock concert last month, drawing the ire of French Football Federation president Noel Le Graet, who said club officials had been taking risks and that the pitches overall were not satisfactory for Euro 2016.The Marseille playing surface apppeared in better condition Wednesday, though it remains to be seen whether it will cut up when play starts.ddddddddddddUEFA had been carrying out repairs on the Marseille pitch during the group stage, as well as at the Stade de France in Paris, which will host the final. In Lille, the entire pitch had to be replaced after the group stage, giving it a patchy appearance for Germanys 3-0 win over Slovakia in the last 16, for which the criticism was muted. That field faces another test when Wales and Belgium play there Friday.There has been heavy rain over some venues, but strong sun in the south, leading to brown spots on the field in Nice when England lost to Iceland.UEFA has been defensive over the state of the pitches.Announcing the Lille pitch replacement, UEFA defended its pitch consultant Richard Hayden from what it called completely baseless criticism directed at him throughout the tournament and hoped the condition of the fields would improve.Now the tournament has reached the quarterfinals, any more talk about the pitches could dig up a major embarrassment for organizers.
