Novak Djokovic and Rafael Nadal may both be heading into the US Open with niggling injuries but Andy Murray will not be lured into a false sense of security.Murray arrives in New York as the man in form and arguably favourite to lift a fourth grand slam title on the back of a superb summer that has already included winning Wimbledon and an Olympic gold medal.The Scots case was further strengthened on Friday when Djokovic, his chief rival, announced the wrist problem that hampered him at the Olympics had still not healed and private issues, now resolved, had festered behind his summer slump.With Roger Federer absent from Flushing Meadows while he recovers from a back problem and Nadal still suffering from a wrist injury of his own, the years final major tournament suddenly appears there for Murrays taking.The world No. 2, however, is unconvinced.To be honest, Novak and Rafa, theyre both in the top half. Them having wrist problems doesnt affect my chances of getting to the final as I wouldnt have to play them in that stage anyway, Murray said.I think Rafa pretty much proved his fitness in Rio, playing a lot of tennis, winning the doubles and also playing as many matches as anyone there. And in singles as well.And then Novak obviously missed Cincinnati but only a few weeks ago he was playing in Canada as well.Hes played enough matches. Its just whether hes fully recovered. We will see that when he plays.Murray has taken false comfort from Djokovics apparent ailments before -- most notably during last years Australian Open final when the Serb was hobbling on a bad ankle, only to storm back to victory -- and the British number one may be wary of being burned again.Novak just missed Cincinnati. I dont know how hes feeling, Murray said. If hes playing here he must be feeling pretty good.The top seed has also won four of the last five major titles available and lost to Murray just twice in 15 meetings.It does, however, offer a hint of vulnerability about a player who, until Sam Querreys heroics at Wimbledon, appeared infallible and primed for a period of dominance similar to Federer almost 10 years ago.Federer, 35, Nadal, 30, Djokovic and Murray, both 29, have together won 45 of the last 51 grand slams but Murray admits there is now a chink of light for the rest of the field.All of us are getting towards the end of our careers, were in the latter stages, said Murray, who plays Lukas Rosol in round one on Tuesday.We have all been up in the top 10 in the world, me and Novak (nearly 10 years), for Roger and Rafa its been longer than that -- 15 years for Roger and probably 13 years for Rafa, who has played loads of matches.So its normal there would be wear and tear on the body and you pick up a few more injuries as you go on in your career.I think when everyone is fit and healthy they are capable of winning these major events. But there are injuries and it gives opportunities for other guys to make a break.Thats going to happen over the next few years, for sure, because I cant go on forever. Chris Burford Jersey .

BOSTON -- Yankees right-hander Tyler Clippard had a short, quick answer for how badly things went for New York at Fenway Park this weekend.Brutal.

Castro strained his right hamstring running out a double and Ellsbury bruised his right knee sliding into a bullpen wall trying to make a catch.Ramirez drove in four runs and Jackie Bradley Jr. had a tying RBI single for the East-leading Red Sox, who overcame a rough start by Drew Pomeranz to post their ninth win in 12 games. Boston remained three games ahead of second-place Baltimore, which beat Tampa Bay 2-1 on Sunday.The Red Sox open a 10-game trip at Baltimore with the first of four games on Monday night.The Red Sox overcame deficits three times in the series, including the opener, when they scored five in the ninth and Ramirez hit a game-ending, three-run homer.This time, he hit a fly ball that soared over the Green Monster off Clippaard (1-1) for a 5-4 lead in the seventh.dddddddddddd It was his 12th homer in 21 games.Robby Scott (1-0) retired the only two batters he faced for his first major league victory. Koji Uehara got the final three outs for his seventh save.New York scored single runs in the first and third before chasing Pomeranz with two in the fourth.But the Red Sox sliced it to 4-3 when Ramirez hit a line drive off the base of a light stanchion above the Monster after Sabathia threw widely to first on what would have been an easy inning-ending double play.Sabathia gave up four runs and eight hits in five-plus innings.Didi Gregorius drove in the Yankees first run with an RBI double before Sanchez hit a shot that caromed off a billboard above the left-field seats.TRAINERS ROOMYankees: 3B Chase Headley was also out of the lineup after his back stiffened up Saturday.Red Sox: Red Sox slugger David Ortiz struck out as a pinch hitter, getting most of the night off after running the bases a lot the first three games.SWEEPSBoston recorded its first four-game sweep over New York since 1990. The Red Sox also had a three-game sweep at home against the Yankees this season. Its the first time the Yankees were swept in a four-game series since 2012, at Oakland.MOOKIE MAGICRF Mookie Betts made two diving catches, the second against Brett Gardner leading off the ninth that brought chants of MVP!
