Andy Murray
Andy Murray settled the nerves with an impressive first round win at Wimbledon, beating the Czech Republic’s Jan Hajek 7-5, 6-1, 6-2.
The 23 year old Scot showed some encouraging signs on court one, given his recent lack of conviction on the court, hitting 17 aces and 56 winning shots in the sweltering conditions at Wimbledon.
Murray coped with the early onslaught from Hajek and from the eigth game there was only one likely outcome as the Brit upped his service game and sealed the match in just one hour and forty minutes.
Murray will now play either Jarkko Nieminen or Stefan Koubek in the second round but he will be pleased with his mission accomplished in today’s match.
It is now 74 years since Wimbledon had a British mens singles champion and Murray would love this title more than any other. Can he lift himself for long enough to stand a chance at this years tournament?
