World No.2 Andy Murray has raced into the semi-finals of the Monte Carlo Masters with a 6-2 6-0 demolition of Canadian Milos Raonic.

Opening proceedings on centre court, the Briton, who struggled in the previous round, was never bothered by 10th seed Raonic in a one-sided encounter on Friday.

Murray, who hit 19 winners and did not face a single break point, will next face either eight-times champion Rafa Nadal or 2014 winner Stan Wawrinka.
