Raonic shows no sign of injury with easy win in Florida

Milos Raonic advanced to the second round of the Delray Beach Open in Florida on Tuesday with a 6-1, 6-4 win over American qualifier Tim Smyczek.

In his first match since losing in the Australian Open quarter-finals to Rafael Nadal last month, the world No. 4 from Thornhill, Ont., converted three of his four break point opportunities against Smyczek.

Raonic will take on Croatia's Borna Coric in the second round.

Raonic hadn't played since January because of an injury to the adductor, the muscle group near the hip and groin. Raonic was forced to miss Canada's Davis Cup tie with Great Britain because of the injury. Canada lost the tie 3-2.
