"I was always going to play here after Australia. It's tough to adjust to the first indoor match in a few months," said the Scot, who is seeded second here and begins his campaign against another former Aussie Open finalist Marcos Baghdatis today. World No 5 Murray said that he dealt with his straight-sets Melbourne defeat by good friend Novak Djokovic "pretty well," adding that it did not affect his desire to front up so soon after his Grand Slam loss.
"I had always planned on playing here, Australia was a good start to the year. I would have liked to have gone one win further but I'm looking forward to the year ahead," added Murray, who won here in 2009.
