Andy Murray recorded his fourth win in three weeks by battling back from a set down to beat Juan Ignacio Londero in the first round of the Shanghai Masters.
Murray, who has risen from 503 to 289 in the world rankings after reaching the quarter-finals in Beijing last week before falling to Dominic Thiem, had to do things the hard way, having lost the opening set.
However, the three-time Grand Slam champion found a way to get over the finish line, with more flashes of his trademark all-court game enough to see off world No 56 Londero 2-6 6-2 6-3.
The former world No 1 is using the Chinese swing of the ATP Tour for some much-needed match practice as he aims to get back to his best and, after a run to the last eight last week, he will hope for at least more of the same in Shanghai.
