–

Indoor tennis means quiet days, with only two courts typically used and few seeds playing early in the week.

But Basel had an intriguing one between Jan-Lennard Struff and Chris Eubanks, won by the German. And of course they had Andy Murray. But No. 8 seed Sebastian Korda, who plays doubles with Félix Auger-Aliassime on Tueday, was ousted.

Vienna had Alexander Zverev and No. 8 seed Karen Khachanov, both of whom got through.

(Basel and Vienna are six hours ahead of ET).
