Wimbledon: Serena Williams, Andy Murray into 2nd Round

Defending champion Serena Williams racked up her 80th Wimbledon victory Tuesday while Andy Murray raced through before rain brought action at the All England Club to a soggy halt.

    World number one and six-time champion Williams, bidding for a record-equaling 22nd Grand Slam title, battled to a 6-2, 6-4 win over Swiss qualifier Amra Sadikovic, ranked at 148 in the world.    She will face fellow American Christina McHale for a place in the last 32.

    Murray, the 2013 champion, made a flying start to his bid for a second Wimbledon title as the world number two crushed compatriot Liam Broady 6-2, 6-3, 6-4.

    The 29-year-old brushed aside the world number 235 and will next play Taiwan's Lu Yen-Hsun.
