Australian Open 2015: Andy Murray defeats Yuki Bhambri in straight sets as Ana Ivanovic gets beaten by Lucie Hradecka

Andy Murray produced an unconvincing performance against India's Yuki Bhambri but still advanced to the second round of the Australian Open with a 6-3 6-4 7-6 (7/3) victory on Margaret Court Arena.

Fifth seed Ana Ivanovic crashed out of the Australian Open on the opening day, losing in three sets to Czech world No 142 Lucie Hradecka.

Ivanovic looked to be in charge of the contest on Rod Laver Arena when she took the first set for the loss of just one game, but won just five more to suffer only the second first-round loss of her career in Melbourne, 1-6 6-3 6-2 in front of her stunned supporters at Rod Laver Arena.

The former world No 1 reached the quarter-finals here last year and came into the event on the back of reaching the final of the recent WTA Tour event in Brisbane.
