Murray and Dan Evans were defeated by Thiago Seyboth Wild and Sebastian Baez 7-6, 7-6 in the first round of doubles. There’s guys obviously ahead of us in the rankings, and we’ve got good doubles players in the U.K.,” Murray said. Jamie said Andy told him he wanted to play doubles at the French Open “because the Olympics for him are important and he wanted to show that he wanted to be in the team and also practice and prepare and not just turn up.” ___ AP Sports Writer Jerome Pugmire contributed to this report.
