ANDY MURRAY suffered a third consecutive brutal defeat by Stan Wawrinka at the French Open - and this one will be the last here to the Swiss star.
The Scot lost a five-set epic to his fellow triple Grand Slam event champion in the 2017 semi-final and in straight sets in the first round in 2020.
Last night former world No.1 Murray went down to another crushing defeat, 6-4 6-4 6-2 in only 2hrs 19mins under the unforgiving lights of Court Philippe-Chatrier.
During the embarrassingly onesided third set, it was sad to see this great champion simply destroyed on one of the game's great stages.
Before the match, the 2016 finalist here had insisted he has yet to make a decision over his retirement this summer.
After a second consecutive firstround defeat in a Grand Slam tournament, his retirement came another step closer.
