 Andy Murray is now eager to surpass the achievements of Tim Henman after matching his fellow Briton's career-wins record on Wednesday.

The 27-year-old equalled Henman's 496 career wins, which represents an Open era record for a British man, with a 6-3 6-3 victory over France's Adrian Mannarino at Indian Wells in California.

On matching Henman's record, Murray joked on Sky Sports: 'That's one of the few records Tim still had over me.

 I wasn't actually aware of the record so that's nice. Hopefully I can get through the next round and get past him.'

The victory in California saw Murray book a quarter-final match-up with Spain's Feliciano Lopez, who edged past Japan's Kei Nishikori.

Referring to his win over 26-year-old Mannarino, the Scot said: 'It was a very tough match, he's playing very well this year and he's got a very tricky game.

'He's a lefty but he has a very flat backhand and a short take-back on his forehand so it's hard to read.

'He moves well and he has good hands around the net - in both sets though he played one or two loose games which helped me and I stayed solid throughout.
