There were no first-round dramas for Andy Murray as he eased past countryman Liam Broady to open his Wimbledon campaign.After being taken to five sets in his first two matches at the French Open, Murray needed just an hour and 43 minutes to defeat 22-year-old wild card Broady 6-2, 6-3, 6-4.The 2013 champion will hope for more of the same from his next match on Thursday against Chinese Taipeis Lu Yen-hsun.Murray said of his performance: I served pretty well. Offensively I thought I did some good stuff. Maybe defensively I could have done a little bit better.But the first match is always tricky. Obviously Liam... weve never played each before although weve practised a lot and its not that easy playing someone you know so well, but I did okay.When we started the match were both trying to win but it doesnt make it any easier. You just want to go out and try to play a good match.This was Murrays first match against a fellow British player at a grand slam, and the first involving two British players since Tim Henman beat Greg Rusedski in the first round of the US Open a decade ago.Not since Henman defeated Martin Lee in 2001, meanwhile, had there been a meeting of home players at Wimbledon in the mens singles.It was a huge occasion for Broady, who made Marcus Willis-style headlines on day one last year when he came from two sets down to defeat Marinko Matosevic.He has practised a few times with Murray and admitted the first time he was so nervous he struggled to put the ball in the court.Broady soon found out why the world No. 2 is such a formidable opponent, winning just one point in the first three games before getting on the board, no doubt much to his relief.Coach Ivan Lendl, back in Murrays box for the first time at a grand slam since their reunion, had stressed the need for his charge not to waste energy and would therefore have been very happy to see him keep his foot down and break serve again to clinch the set.Blustery conditions on Centre Court were not making it easy for either player, with Broady struggling to time his forehand.It looked very much like Liam was heading the same way as his sister Naomi, who lost to Elina Svitolina on Monday, when he double-faulted to trail 3-1 in the second set.He was getting a warm reception from the Centre Court crowd and he pumped his fist to a great cheer after finishing a fine point with a forehand winner, but a game later Murray wrapped up the set.This was a stroll on the lawns for Murray and he jogged back to his chair after breaking serve again at the start of the third set.The first signs of frustration for the home favourite came as Broady did an excellent job of keeping him out on court.The Stockport player even had two chances to break the Murray serve but the 29-year-old lifted himself out of second gear to save them and clinched his first match point with a dinked forehand.It was a timely finish from Murray, with the Centre Court covers coming on seconds after the pair had walked off court, as rain arrived.Meanwhile, world No. 4, Stan Wawrinka, is also through,?beating the highly-rated American Taylor Fritz.Eighteen-year-old Fritz is clearly a mature individual -- he is already engaged to be married -- and can look back on his show with great pride, taking a set as the Swiss won 7-6 (7/4), 6-1, 6-7 (7/2), 6-4.Earlier, British No. 2?Aljaz Bedene had suffered a straight-sets defeat to Richard Gasquet.The Slovenian-born Bedene, who moved to Hertfordshire in 2008, is yet to play his best tennis on grass and he struggled to trouble the Frenchman, who won 6-3, 6-4, 6-3.Gasquet, the seventh seed and a potential quarterfinal opponent for Murray, will play either Spains Marcel Granollers or Victor Estrella Burgos of the Dominican Republic in the second round.More to follow...
