Rafael Nadal returns in style after Wimbledon horror show

Nadal was playing for the first time since his opening round exit at the hands of Steve Darcis at Wimbledon six weeks ago. 

MONTREAL: Rafael Nadal bounced back from his shock first-round Wimbledon loss with a 6-2, 6-0 win over Canada's Jesse Levine to make the Montreal Masters third round on Wednesday.

The fourth-seeded Nadal was untroubled in 71 minutes as he made his summer hardcourt debut with the US Open getting under way from August 26.

The world number four has yet to lose on cement this season after winning the Indian Wells title in March.

Nadal was playing for the first time since his opening round exit at the hands of Steve Darcis at Wimbledon six weeks ago.

Earlier, Andy Murray won his first match since claiming the Wimbledon title, as the second-seeded Scot defeated Marcel Granollers 6-4, 7-6 (7/2).
