There were flashes of the glory days for Britain’s former world number one Andy Murray on Thursday as he dumped top seed David Goffin of Germany out of the ATP Shenzhen Open 6-3, 6-4 in round-of-16 action. The 31-year-old dug deep when it mattered — like the Murray of old — brushing off 70 per cent of break points faced and firing down 15 aces against a player ranked 11th in the world.
