Andy Murray admitted he is not enjoying his tennis after suffering another disappointing defeat to Australian Alex de Minaur in the first round of the Paris Masters.<\/p>\n

Murray had lost all five previous matches against the Australian, including three this season with the most recent coming in Beijing where the Briton failed to convert three match points.<\/p>\n

The former world number one looked on course to end that run on Monday after recovering from losing the opening set tie-break to lead 5-2 in the decider.<\/p>\n

However, Murray failed to win either of his next two service games \u2013 despite having a match point in the second \u2013 and the world number 13 prevailed 7-6 (5) 4-6 7-5 in just over three hours.<\/p>\n

Murray\u2019s temper boiled over during the final set, knocking the drinks bottles and towel off his bench during a change of ends before he smashed his racket off the floor after the last point.<\/p>\n

The disappointing run of form has left the 36-year-old two-time Wimbledon champion questioning what else he has to do to get back to winning ways.<\/p>\n

\u201cI\u2019m not really enjoying it just now in terms of how I feel on the court and how I\u2019m playing,\u201d Murray told several national newspapers.<\/p>\n

\u201cThe last five, six months haven\u2019t been that enjoyable, so I need to try and find some of that enjoyment back because playing a match like that there\u2019s not much positivity there.<\/p>\n

\u201cWhen I play a good point, I\u2019m not really getting behind myself and then in the important moments, that will to win and fight that has always been quite a big, big part of my game\u2026\u201d<\/p>\n

Another Briton who did not enjoy the match was Katie Boulter \u2013 the girlfriend of De Minaur.<\/p>\n

The British number one wrote on X, formerly known as Twitter: \u201cHad enough Alex and Andy for the rest of my life. No more please and thank you.\u201d<\/p>\n

Murray, who is entered for next week\u2019s ATP 250 event in Metz, said he will take some time to consider whether to play for Great Britain in the Davis Cup at the end of November.<\/p>\n

He added: \u201cIf I want to keep going, I\u2019m going to need a lot of work.<\/p>\n

\u201cIt\u2019s not just going to be like one or two weeks of training to get me to where I need to get to, it\u2019s going to have to be a lot of work and consistent work to give myself a chance.\u201d<\/p>\n
