British number one Andy Murray booked his place in the second round of the Madrid Masters on Monday with a comfortable 6-2 6-4 win over Spanish qualifier Ivan Navarro Pastor.
The 19-year-old Scot, who has stumbled out at the first hurdle in 10 tournaments this year, made a confident start on his debut appearance in the two million euro ($2.50 million) hard court tournament. He broke serve in the fourth and eighth games, taking the first set with a delicate lob. He was pushed harder in the second but stepped up a gear at 4-4 and won the match with a classy cross court shot. Murray will now come across last year's losing finalist Ivan Ljubicic in the second round.
The Croat, seeded three in Madrid, won his third title of the season with a straight sets victory over Chile's Fernando Gonzalez at the Vienna Open. Mardy Fish had to battle back from a set down to see off Belgium's Xavier Malisse 5-7 6-3 7-5 and earn himself a second round match against champion Rafael Nadal.
The 20-year-old Spaniard has struggled to find his rhythm on hard courts in recent weeks, losing in straight sets to Sweden's Joachim Johansson in the second round in Stockholm.
Asian number one Paradorn Srichaphan swept past Spanish qualifier Gorka Fraile 6-2 6-2 in 55 minutes and will now face Gonzalez. Former French Open champion Gaston Gaudio meets Chile's Nicolas Massu who lost to Juan Carlos Ferrero in the 2003 final in Madrid. The winner of that match will face top seed and world number one Roger Federer, who is bidding to win his 10th title of the season.
