Andy Murray will continue his search for his first win of 2024 as he faces Alexandre Muller in the first round of the Qatar Open.

The ATP Doha event will be Murray’s fifth entry of the year so far, with the Scot looking to end a six-match losing streak stretching back to October of last year.

The 36-year-old was defiant last week that he will continue to play and will be hopeful that the Qatar Open, which Murray reached the final of last year, will prove a happy hunting ground.

Frenchman Muller is ranked 75th in the world and was a qualifier for this event. The pair have met once before - during Murray’s run to the final at this tournament last year - with the Scot winning the clash in three sets.
