Andy Murray Beats Brandon Nakashima In ATP Washington Opener
Andy Murray held firm in a 7-6 (7/5), 6-4 victory over Brandon Nakashima in the ATP hardcourt tournament in Washington on Wednesday, the British great's first match since an epic second-round exit at Wimbledon. The 36-year-old Scot, ranked 44th in the world, saved all six break points he faced against the 70th-ranked American to reach the third round. That included one in the final game, when a double fault left Murray down 30-40.
