Andy Murray is back on the ATP side, with a tough first-round draw in Metz vs. Ugo Humbert. It’s the spotlight evening match, natch. And Murray got through it.
Also up was Vasek Pospisil, teaming up with Nicolas Mahut of France. The last two times they paired, they won the tournament. They got the No. 3 seeds in the first round, and went out in straight sets.
Pospisil will play Murray Wednesday night.
