    Fourth-seeded Andy Murray of Britain rallied from another two-set deficit against Richard Gasquet to outlast the Frenchman 4-6, 6-7 (5), 6-4, 6-2, 6-1 in the first round of the French Open on Monday.

    Murray was never in control during the first two sets when Gasquet showed the strong form that brought him a title at the Open de Nice last week, but the Frenchman then ran out of steam and needed massage on his legs after the fourth.

    Murray also rallied from two sets down to beat Gasquet at Wimbledon to reach the quarterfinals in 2008.
