LONDON (AP) – Andy Murray reached his fifth tennis final of the year and 50th of his career when he completed a 6-3, 7-6 (4) win over Serbia’s Viktor Troicki at the grass-court Queen’s Club on Sunday.

The semi-final resumed in the first set at 3-3 and break point to top-seeded Murray after rain stopped play Saturday. Murray won nine of the next ten points to take the set.

Troicki broke to lead 3-2 in the second set but Murray levelled at 4-4 and went on to take the tiebreaker.

Murray plays unseeded South African Kevin Anderson later Sunday as the Briton attempts to join John McEnroe, Boris Becker, Andy Roddick and Lleyton Hewitt as a four-time event winner. Murray won the tournament in 2009, 2011 and 2013.

Murray is chasing his third title of the year after victories in Munich and Madrid.

Anderson is playing in his second final of the season.
