Andy, who is third in the singles world ranking, likes to play doubles occasionally but does not particularly enjoy playing his brother, whose livelihood depends on doubles.
"It's not ideal, not a situation I want to be in all of the time," Andy told reporters after the brothers met competitively for the first time.
"Doubles is Jamie's career. I support him every single week. I watch all of his matches online. I'm always desperate for him to win.
"I want to play well for Leander too. It's tricky."
Andy's doubles defeat came just a few hours after he easily won his third-round singles match against Gilles Muller in straight sets, 6-3 6-2.
