MADRID (Reuters) - World number one Andy Murray lost 6-3 6-3 to unseeded Borna Coric in the Madrid Open third round on Thursday as his difficult start to the claycourt season continued, while Rafa Nadal and Novak Djokovic eased into the quarter-finals.

The Briton played poorly in the first set, losing three service games and looking increasingly frustrated.
