Three-time Grand Slam champion Andy Murray said he "did OK" in his first singles match in seven months -- a 6-4 6-4 loss to Richard Gasquet at the Cincinnati Masters here.

"I don't really know what I was expecting, to be honest," said Murray on Monday, sidelined since January by a career-threatening hip injury. "I did OK.

"There were a lot of things I would like to have done better in the match, but you also have to be somewhat realistic in terms of what you can expect, in terms of how you actually play and hit the ball."
"That's nothing to do with my hip, that's just me not running for a ball."
