His singles gold medal chances being massively enhanced by Novak Djokovic's exit was scant consolation for Andy Murray after his family exit from the doubles.
The
world number two was barely able to express his disappointment after he
and brother Jamie joined the host of upset victims at the Olympic
tennis, going down 7-6 7-6 to Brazilians Andre Sa and Thomaz Bellucci in
the doubles first round.
Barely
ten minutes before Djokovic left the court in tears after his defeat
against Juan Martin Del Potro, the celebrated Scottish siblings had
watched in despair as a ball that flew viciously off the net cord sealed
a 16-14 loss in their second tiebreak, after saving six match points.
