Rio Olympics 2016: Andy Murray & Jamie Murray lose, Novak Djokovic out

Andy and Jamie Murray are out of the Rio 2016 men's doubles, while top seed Novak Djokovic lost in the singles.

The Britons, seeded second, lost 7-6 (8-6) 7-6 (16-14) to Brazilian pair Thomaz Bellucci and Andre Sa in front of a partisan home crowd.

Earlier, defending champion Andy Murray won his opening Olympic singles match by beating Serbia's Viktor Troicki.

But Djokovic, Troicki's team-mate, is out after a shock loss to Argentina's Juan Martin del Potro.
