World No. 3 Andy Murray got off to a slow start in his opening match at Indian Wells on Sunday but persevered to post a 5-7, 6-2, 6-2 victory over Russian Evgeny Donskoy. Murray, playing his first match in six weeks, found himself in a 5-1 hole in just 24 minutes against the 22-year-old ranked 83rd in the world. The Scot reeled off four straight games to knot the set, but Donskoy broke him for a third time in the 12th game to pocket the set. Murray, however, had found his range and made short work of the second and third sets, avoiding the ignominy of a third straight opening-match exit in the year's first Masters event. The US Open champion next faces Taiwan's Lu Yen-Hsun, a 7-6 (7/5), 7-6 (7/5) winner over 26th-seeded Slovakian Martin Klizan. Source : AFP
