Quotes from the captain:

Judy Murray said: “It was a nice way to start the event and was a relatively stressless day. We play against Turkey tomorrow which I expect will be tougher.

"It is nice to get through without having to spend too much time on court as by the time you get to the end of a week like this everyone is getting a bit tired.

“They all played very well today, they adapted well to the conditions and surface. In the doubles particularly, Anna was making her debut and it was nice for her to start off with a victory.”
