Britain’s Andy Murray suffered another early exit in the Chinese hard-court swing after losing to Roman Safiullin in the Shanghai Masters first round.
Former world number one Murray was beaten 6-3 6-2 in a dominant display from Chengdu finalist Safiullin.
The Russian secured early breaks in each set, with 36-year-old Murray becoming increasingly frustrated.
It is Murray’s second consecutive first-round defeat after losing at the China Open last week.
