Murray aims for Indian Wells boost after break

INDIAN WELLS, California (Reuters) - Having made early exits from the BNP Paribas Open at Indian Wells the last two years, U.S. Open champion Andy Murray is banking on a long break from the game to help spark his form for the 2013 edition.

The 25-year-old Scot has not competed since he lost to Novak Djokovic in the Australian Open final in January, preferring instead to work on his fitness for long-term gain.
