Murray is looking for a full-time doubles partner
|
Jamie Murray and new doubles partner James Blake crashed out in the first round of the Rogers Cup in Montreal.
Murray and world number nine Blake fell 6-7 (3/7) 6-3 10-8 to Ivan Ljubicic and Fernando Gonzalez.
Murray and Blake dominated the first-set tie-break. In the second set, Gonzalez and Ljubicic broke in the eighth game and then served out.
And with the momentum on their side the singles specialists took a tight decider to progress.
Murray announced last week he would split from regular partner Eric Butorac after the US Open.
