Winning start in IW

Andy has moved safely into the third round of the Indian Wells Masters 1000 after a 6-4 6-4 win over Andreas Seppi.
He'll now play Michael Russell who beat Igor Andreev in three sets.
This was a pretty comfortable win ("I did what I had to do"), and whilst it never hit the heights he was simply pleased to be back on court.
"It's been a tough few weeks for obvious reasons," said Andy. "(There has been) a lot of stuff going on off the court and in the media, a lot of questions asked about various things, so it's just nice to be over here now."
"After the first three of four service games I started serving big," he added. "I felt like I was hitting my forehand pretty well, but my backhand I was leaving in the middle of the court quite a lot and he was able to dictate quite a lot of the points. I did what i needed to do - I moved well - and obviously got the win in straight sets which was good."
