No contest as Murray goes through

World number one Andy Murray has been given a walkover into the third round of the Barcelona Open after Bernard Tomic pulled out with a back problem.

The Scot returned to tournament tennis last week in Monte Carlo after more than a month on the sidelines but, having beaten Gilles Muller in his opening match, lost to Albert RamosVinolas.

Following the Australian’s late withdrawal from the tournament, Murray will play the winner of the match between Spaniards Albert Montanes and Feliciano Lopez in the third round.
