Andy Murray has said that he felt "pretty good" during his victory over Alexander Bublik in the Wimbledon first round.
The world number one and defending champion has struggled with a sore hip in the build-up to the tournament at SW19, but he had little issue in beating his Kazakh opponent by a 6-1 6-4 6-2 scoreline.
Murray was competing in just his second grass-court match of the season, but he revealed that he was happy after coming through the contest with minimal fuss.
The 30-year-old told BBC Sport: "I feel pretty good, the last few days I had been feeling better each day.
"Getting out on the match court is different, the intensity is higher and the adrenaline helps numb some pain. I moved well today and thought I did pretty well for the first match."
Murray will now face Germany's Dustin Brown in the last 64 on Wednesday.
