Andy Murray has been given a bye into the second round of the Artois Championships at the Queen's Club.

Andy, seeded 6, is likely to face two-time runner-up Grosjean in his opener with a possible third round encounter versus French Open quarter-finalist Ernests Gulbis or 12th seed Andreas Seppi.

Should he come through that section OK, No. 3 seed Roddick is likely to be his quarter-final opponent.

R2 > Grosjean or a qualifier
R3 > Gulbis or Seppi (expected)
QF > Roddick (expected)
SF > Nadal (expected)

The draw in full

Meh, it's a high class tournament - would love a QF match-up with A-Rod.

Not a hard draw at all me thinks.  It could have been worse.  On paper it looks tough but because its grass, andy should be favourite in all his matches with the exception of Nadal if he gets that far.  Really pleased with draw in fact, I was wondering if I would come in from work and he gets Ancic quite early on.

It would be good if Dr Ivo gets to play Nadal at QF stage, be interesting to see how he plays against his serve especially on grass.

But Gulbis will be on a high after last 8 at French open but I don't think that he is any good on grass.

Shame Andy only got to play 2games today. Needs to get more match play before the start of Wimbledon. Look forward to seeing him do well there
