My learned colleague Jonathan Jurejko has filed his insightful words of wisdom from Devonshire Park as Andy Murray wins his first competitive match since Wimbledon last year.

"Murray was patient and precise throughout, forcing Stan Wawrinka into a number of wild errors," he writes from Eastbourne.

You can read the rest of his report here.

When asked if he had decided to play at Wimbledon, having beaten Stan Wawrinka in straight sets, Andy Murray remained coy.

He told broadcaster Amazon Prime: "I am going to decide nearer the time. I need to see how my body pulls up. I'll see how I am tomorrow and take it from there."

Not giving much away there, then.

Andy Murray also spoke in response to a question about whether he will play at Wimbledon. We'll have the quotes with you shortly.

Andy Murray, who faces British number Kyle Edmund in the next round, added: "Kyle has been fantastic and is a great player who is improving all the time. He has a great team behind him.

"He is getting close to the top of the game which is a credit to him and his team. I am expecting a tough match and will try to play my best."

Elsewhere, at the Wimbledon qualifying event British players enjoyed a day of mixed fortunes in the first round of matches.

Former British number two Jamie Ward beat Argentine Marco Trungelliti 6-3 7-6.

Alexander Ward beat Darian King of Barbados 4-6 7-5 6-0, while Lloyd Glasspool clinched a 7-5 7-5 win over Spain's Sergio Gutierrez Ferrol.

Aidan McHugh, George Loffhagen, Anton Matusevich and Jack Draper were all knocked out.

Andy Murray, speaking courtside after his win over Stan Wawrinka said: "Obviously I am very happy to get the win. I thought the first set I played well, but the second set was patchy and I was a bit nervous.

"When you haven't played for the best part of a year, when you face someone like Stan it is tough. But obviously I am delighted to get the win.

"I was saying to my team before the draw I have no ranking now after Wimbledon so I wouldn't be on the computer. So I look at someone like Juan Martin del Potro and he has had some tough draws coming back form injury. You have to accept it and hopefully start winning some of those matches."

Murray has played an outstanding match with all his grass-court guile to the fore. He's played much better than Wawrinka and barely made any errors.

It was a terrific performance and now we look forward on Wednesday to Andy Murray v Kyle Edmund.

He deserves his win. He's had some miserable times away from the court.

Stan Wawrinka fluffs a return on serve and we are at match point. Wawrinka saves it, but Murray hits a first-time winner and has a second chance.

Stan Wawrinka getting a little prickly with the umpire and a break in concentration sees him a double fault at 40-30. Deuce.

A fourth break point chance for Stan Wawrinka but in a poker face defensive rally the Swiss is a little more impatient and overhits a return.

Another unforced error on Wawrinka's forehand at advantage Murray and the Scot takes a hard-fought hold on serve.

Superb from Andy Murray, Stan Wawrinka has a third break-point chance but his opponent gets high over the top of the ball and whacks it back down court. Back to deuce.

"Come on!" roars Andy Murray after saving both break points - twice volleying at the net. Plenty of guts from the Scot.

Deuce.

Stan Wawrinka attempts to force his way back into the contest by quickly moving the net in search of a winner on Andy Murray's serve. It pays off for the second point in the game and Murray then slices the ball into the net and hits a serve long.

15-40 and two break points for the Swiss.

Former British number one Tim Henman says he is a little surprised Andy Murray is back playing having seen him at close quarters in the past few weeks.

"If you had said to me five weeks ago that he would have been playing the grass court season then I would have said that it is highly unlikely," Henman said in an interview with The Scotsman.

"I have seen a fair amount of him at Wimbledon, where he has been training, and it was hard. He was making really slow progress but it was great to see him back out on court. This is genuinely just a stepping stone and an opportunity to be on the match court and build up"

A key ace at 30-30 helps Stan Wawrinka hold serve. However, he is fast running out of games on Andy Murray's serve to drag this into a third set.

The young ball boy given a ticking off earlier does not need to be told twice and he has Andy Murray's towel ready quicker than an attentive assistant at Turkish bath this time round.

Murray backs up the break with a hold of serve - winning one point at 15-30 with a breathtaking lob he had no right to get to - although he is taken to deuce by Stan Wawrinka this time.

The former British number one wins his seventh point at the net before Wawrinka can only strike his serve low into the net.

Murray seems to be playing cat and mouse with Wawrinka, moving him around and keeping him off balance.

He's not hitting many winners, but he's happy to work Wawrinka around in the belief that the errors will come from Wawrinka sooner rather than later.
