Andy Murray’s Wimbledon comeback is already generating plenty of drama.

The 34-year-old Scotsman played his first match at the All England Club since 2017. And despite blowing a huge lead in the third set, he won.

Murray beat No. 24-seeded Nikoloz Basilashvili 6-4, 6-3, 5-7, 6-3.

Murray took a 5-0 lead in the third set but was broken serving for the match three consecutive times, and lost seven games in a row. He regained the upper hand in the seesaw match in the final set.

Ranked 118th, Murray is mounting a comeback after two hip operations. He won Wimbledon in 2013 and 2016.
