Doha: Andy Murray began 2017 where he left off last year, beating Jeremy Chardy in straight sets in his season opener in Qatar on Tuesday to register his 25th consecutive victory.
The World No.1 secured a 6-0, 7-6 (7/2) first-round victory, breezing through the first set in just 20 minutes before the Frenchman improved in the second. "From my side, I felt like I hit the ball very clean," Murray said. "I was hitting the ball well, moved pretty good, served well, especially in the tiebreaker. For a first match it was good for sure," Andy added.
