Andy Murray insists he does not care where he plays at Wimbledon after winning his second-round match on Court One.

The British No. 1 was bumped off Centre Court on Wednesday, but despite a rain delay, Murray managed to dispatch Tobias Kamke with relative ease.

After a straight-sets victory, Murray claimed he would be happy to play on any court, and it would not prevent him marching on in his bid to win a maiden grand slam.

"It doesn't bother me," Murray said. "I think all of the players would rather be on Centre because of the roof because you know you're going to get on, but the court's still the same.

"It's a little bit different in terms of how it looks, because now with the roof it feels very enclosed, whereas Court One seems quite open, like Centre Court used to. So that's slightly different.

"But I don't mind playing on any court: Centre, Court One, Court Six, I don't care. I just want to try to win."

Murray also revealed that he had turned to horror movies in a bid to take his mind off things. With rain holding up proceedings on Wednesday, and further poor weather forecast over the fortnight, Murray admitted he may well be making his way through the sequels.

"You normally pick the one thing that will stop you thinking about tennis," Murray said. "Scream did a pretty good job of that. I did hear at the end they have Scream 2 on tonight and Scream 3 on Thursday. Maybe I'll watch one of them."
