KEY BISCAYNE, Fla. (AP) No. 2 seed Andy Murray lost the final five games and was beaten by No. 26 Grigor Dimitrov 6-7 (1), 6-4, 6-3 Monday in the third round of the upset-filled Miami Open.

Murray, who won the Key Biscayne title in 2009 and 2013, committed 22 unforced errors in the final set and 55 total. He was broken six times, including in his final three service games.

Murray's elimination leaves the tournament without four of the five top-seeded men. Among them only No. 1 Novak Djokovic reached the round of 16.

In addition, eight-time Key Biscayne champion Serena Williams lost in the fourth round Monday to Svetlana Kuznetsova, 6-7 (3), 6-1, 6-2.
