Good afternoon. Andy Murray will be heading out to court one at Wimbledon in the next few minutes to face Lu Yen-Hsun in the second round of Wimbledon.

The duo have played twice before, each taking one win. Murray beat Lu at Indian Wells earlier this year, while the Taiwanese player beat the Brit at the Olympics in 2008.

The world number 73 has only progressed past the third round of a Grand Slam once in his career, but it was at Wimbledon. He made the last eight in 2010, where he was eventually beaten by Novak Djokovic.

The players have just come onto the court. Unsurprisingly, the crowd give a big cheer to the British number one. On paper, this should be a fairly straightforward encounter for the US Open champion, but Lu has nothing to lose, and showed impressive tenacity in his lengthy match with James Ward on Monday.

Murray's section of the draw has already lost one of its highest-ranked players today, following Marin Cilic's decision to withdraw from the tournament with a shoulder injury. The Croatian was seeded to face Murray in the fourth round.

Some members of the crowd have really made an effort this afternoon. There are two men sat just behind Murray's chair dressed as Superman!

Right then, play is just about to get underway, with the Brit serving first.

Lu manages to save the first break point with a brilliant smash from close into the net, but Murray engages him in a rally and forces the 29-year-old to fire his forehand just long, allowing Murray to progress to the third round in straight sets.

The autograph hunters are keeping Murray on court, one even seems to be asking him to sign a bottle of wine! The second seed will face Spain's Tommy Robredo in the next round, following his win over Nicolas Mahut earlier this afternoon.

Following his victory, Murray said: "I thought I kept my concentration well on serve, I served very well throughout the match. Each game i was putting a lot of pressure on his service games, he came out with some great shots."
