A meeting of three-time Slam champs in the @CincyTennis first round! Andy Murray gets a late entry into the main draw and will face Stan Wawrinka for the 22nd time... #CincyTennis
Andy Murray was slated to play in the Western & Southern Open qualifiers today but the Brit got a direct entry into the main draw due to some pullouts.
Murray was set to play Taro Daniel later today but that match was cancelled due to Murray's direct entry into the event. Murray was only a few places out but with several players dropping out of the event the Brit got a direct acceptance into the draw. Taro Daniel wasn't so lucky and he'll face Henri Laaksonen later today in the qualifiers.
Murray will face Stan Wawrinka in the main draw and it will be the 22nd time they will play each other. Murray is leading 12-9 and he'll look to add number 13 as both of them are struggling with their tennis.
