Andy Murray dominated Juan Ignacio Chela to advance to the second round of the French Open with a quick-fire 6-2, 6-2, 6-1 win.

Argentine Chela had looked a dangerous opponent, having once been ranked as high as 15 in the world.

But injuries have seen him drop outside the world's top 200 and even on his favoured surface, he struggled and flailed on Court Suzanne Lenglen

In contrast, Murray seemed to enjoy being in total control, his opponent holding his serve on only three occasions.

The British number one struck a perfect balance between defensive play and aggression and this performance bodes well for his hopes of progressing past the third round for the first time.
