Men's Breakdown and Reaction

After receiving a bye in the first round, Andy Murray took to the court for his first match at Indian Wells. And while the second set was a grind that ended in a 7-3 tiebreak, Murray withstood some solid shot-making by Marcel Granollers to secure a spot in the third round. 

The tournament's official Twitter account shared a photo of Murray celebrating with the Indian Wells faithful:



Thanks to his straight-sets victory, Murray will face Federico Delbonis, who upset 32nd-ranked Joao Sousa, 7-6 (6), 6-4, on Saturday afternoon. 

Sixth-seeded Tomas Berdych also took care of Juan Martin del Potro in straight sets. After battling through the first set and taking the tiebreak 7-4, Berdych settled in and imposed his will against the 27-year-old. 

"It's not easy [to] play against Tomas," del Potro said following the loss, according to ATPWorldTour.com. "He plays so aggressive all the time, and I had to run a lot today."

To that point, a scan of the match's final stats shows that Berdych won a stellar 89 percent of his first-serve points while holding steady in the return game. While del Potro won only 11 percent of his first-serve return points, Berdych posted a conversion rate of 31 percent.
