Champion Murray advances

Olympic champion Andy Murray won his opening match in the Rogers Cup on Wednesday, beating Italy's Flavio Cipolla 6-1, 6-3.

Murray, the second-seeded Briton who beat Roger Federer on Sunday in London for the gold medal, set up a third-round match against Canada's Milos Raonic. Raonic advanced on Tuesday.

"I felt OK this morning when I practiced and decided to give it a go," Murray said. "I feel a little sore in the joints. I feel tired mentally. I haven't really slept much in the last few days so that's probably catching up to me a little bit.
