LONDON (Reuters) - Andy Murray's long-awaited return to competitive tennis ended in defeat by Nick Kyrgios at Queen's Club on Tuesday but there were plenty of positives in his 2-6 7-6(4) 7-5 loss.

The 31-year-old Scot only gave himself the green light to play the grasscourt event on Saturday, saying he had zero expectations going into his first tournament since losing in the quarter-finals of Wimbledon last year.
