Britain's Andy Murray began the defence of his Wimbledon title with a straight-set win over Kazakhstan's Alexander Bublik on Centre Court.

The Scot won 6-1 6-4 6-2, despite a hip injury which disrupted his build-up.

Murray, the world number one, hit 29 winners and maintained his form either side of a rain break in the third set to win in one hour and 44 minutes.

The 30-year-old will face Germany's Dustin Brown - the man who beat Rafael Nadal in 2015 - in round two.

He did seem to be walking gingerly between points...hint of a limp.
 
Murray not gonna win it this year he's clearly hindered.
Novak beating Rafael I think.this year.
 
Murray just said that he didn't realise he was limping, seems to be saying he is not feeling any discomfort.
Actually I found it quite interesting what he said. He said he's not in that much pain.

Which suggests he's in some.

Although I guess that might be a thing he just lives with but ignores like a lot of sportsmen.

Have to be a bit mental to be at the top of most sports.

That definitely doesn't include Daniel Sturridge. Fairy.
