Alex de
Minaur defeated Andy Murray in the first round of the Queen's Club Open with a
score of 6-3, 6-1.
The former
world No. 1 had been showing great form on grass courts, with a winning streak
of ten consecutive matches and two challenger titles in Nottingham and
Surbiton. On the other hand, De Minaur lost in the second round of the Libema
Open 's-Hertogenbosch last week to Tallon Griekspoor, who went on to win the
Dutch tournament.

In the
first set, Murray struggled with his serve, which De Minaur capitalized on.
With a 52% first serve percentage, the two-time Wimbledon champion only won 31%
of points on his second serve and couldn't convert any of the three break
points he faced from De Minaur.
In the
second set, Murray managed to win only 25% of his second serves, allowing De
Minaur to break him twice. The Australian's solid serving performance enabled
him to win the set 6-1 without facing any break points from the British player.
De Minaur
will now face Argentine Diego Schwartzman, who defeated Mackenzie McDonald in
the first round of the Queen's Club Open. Next challenge for Murray will be Wimbledon in two weeks.

- Players need to STOP TRYING TO JUSTIFY THEIR INCLUSION! They are not ambassadors for women in Saudi Arabia, they are not politicians, and they will never make a difference for females in that 'culture'. This little tennis "tournament" changes nothing. Players were lured by the money, opted to participate, and should just keep their predictable excuses and Women's Freedom Fairy Tales to themselves. Period. Like most things in Life -- one cannot make an argument relating to the Saudi Regime and, at the same time, triple your bank account with their "gifts".
