Editors Note : this tennis is so exciting. Every match. Today we were couch potatoes. We’ve watched from early morning till a little while ago. Monfils was awesome and so close to taking Novak to three. It was a really great day. All the matches. The TV commentating was OUTSTANDING. Led by the best ROBBIE KOENIG ! The team that covers the Master Series are better than any other team of reporters. They are fun. Excited. Informative. Relaxed. And only speak to share intelligent and relevant points. Ends.

 

 

 

Murray clinches berth in World Tour Finals, last three spots still in play

 

Andy Murray’s late-season surge officially has him in the World Tour Finals after the Scot rolled over Grigor Dimitrov 6-3, 6-3 in the third round of the BNP Paribas Masters on Thursday afternoon. Murray, who is 20-2 since the U.S. Open with all three of his 2014 titles coming this fall, cruised into the Paris quarterfinals and set up a showdown with world No. 1 Novak Djokovic.

 

Immediately after his London-clinching win, Murray wrote “Bad year!” on one of the television cameras. It was, of course, a reference to talk of the two-time major champion having endured a less-than-stellar 2014 campaign, but it is now a season–despite starting with back injury concerns–that will culminate with a year-end championship appearance.

Stan Wawrinka has already booked his ticket to London, which is good news for him since he bowed out from Paris at the hands of Kevin Anderson on Thursday. Wawrinka served for the match at 5-4 in the third set but ultimately lost 6-7(2), 7-5, 7-6(3).

“I will have time to rest and practice a lot just to be ready for [London],” Wawrinka suggested. “The good thing is I have experience. I’ve played this tournament before. I will just concentrate on what I’m doing and I hope I will be fit to be there.”

 

Three more men will eventually be there, joining a field that is already sure to include Djokovic, Murray, Wawrinka, Roger Federer, and Marin Cilic. The four players still vying for spots are Kei Nishikori, Tomas Berych, David Ferrer, and Milos Raonic.

 

 

 

Raonic has to progress further in Paris than Ferrer in order to secure a place in London, which means the Canadian will have to upset Roger Federer on Friday in order to have any chance. Both Raonic and Ferrer could make it only if they face each other in the final and Raonic wins.
