Tipsarevic struggled with a groin injury from midway through the second set, and continued to play until Murray established a two-set lead.
The Serb had earlier squandered three opportunities to seal the opening set after Murray encountered real problems with his serve.
Tipsarevic broke his opponent initially in the fifth game of the set, capitalising on a weak backhand from Murray to power a forehand down the line for a winner.
A double break was then secured two games later when more indecision from Murray was seized upon by his opponent, who showed conviction in stretching his lead.

The world number three's momentum showed no sign of abating, and he broke Tipsarevic in the opening game of the second set, pouncing on two loose strokes from the Serb to punch forehands outwide.
The contrast in the two players' emotions was stark, as Murray was clearly buoyed by his first-set resurgence, while his opponent stalked around his chair despondently.

A rally of 18 shots was won by Murray with a crushing forehand down the line, which effectively clinched victory for the third seed.
Tipsarevic weighed up his options briefly, but then with a shake of the head, offered his hand to signal a retirement, and the Brit had secured his advancement
