Andy Murray's preparations for the French Open suffered a setback following a straight-sets defeat to Gregoire Barrere in Bordeaux. The Scot, playing his second match since damaging ankle tendons in March, was beaten 6-4 6-2 by the world No 115 in the second round of the Challenger event. Murray on Wednesday returned to action following an injury which put his participation at Roland Garros in doubt when he overcame Kyrian Jacquet after the Frenchman retired in the second set.
The three-time grand slam winner, who showed no visible discomfort, again failed to hold serve in the third, fifth and seventh games of the second set as his 30-year-old opponent deservedly eased into the quarter-finals. British No 3 Dan Evans, also competing in Bordeaux in a bid to find form after a tough spell, earlier defeated France's Harold Mayot 6-3 7-6 .
