Andy Murray’s Wimbledon return began in ideal fashion as the Briton and his partner Pierre-Hugues Herbert thrilled the home fans with a late-night comeback win in the men’s doubles.
Murray and Frenchman Herbert won 4-6 6-1 6-4 6-0 against Marius Copil of Romania and France’s Ugo Humbert.
The first-round match finished at 21:22 BST on Thursday in front of a sizeable crowd under Court One’s new roof.
“It was great to get the win and a nice atmosphere,” said Murray, 32.
“I was a little bit nervous at the start but we got better as match wore on.”
