Andy Murray's victory over Igor Kunitsyn in Dubai ended with a relatively straightforward 6-2, 6-3 scoreline, but the early stages of the match featured a single game that lasted almost as long as some sets.

With Kunitsyn serving, the second game of the match lasted 24 minutes and went to 14 deuces. Murray finally went up 2-0 after converting his ninth break point.

"That was probably the longest game I've ever played on the tour," said Murray.

The longest game ever recorded by the ATP lasted 31 minutes.
