Murray edges through Dubai opener

Murray edges through Dubai opener

Andy Murray
Murray is looking to win his third ATP title of 2009

Britain's Andy Murray reached round two of the Dubai Championships with victory over Sergiy Stakhovsky, but looked to be struggling with an ankle injury.

Murray took control after an uneven start, recovering from a set and a break down to lead 6-7 (3-7) 6-3 5-3 when his opponent called it quits.

Both men struggled with ankle injuries - Murray missed Marseille last week because of the problem.

The Scot will face Arnaud Clement or Rainer Schuettler in the second round.
