A fairly routine win today against Tsonga. He really is top of his game just now, it would be brilliant to see him number 1.
He must be knackered though, he has played some amount of tennis recently.
A walkover for Andy today so through to the final in Vienna. Good chance of a 3rd consecutive title.
He could be number 1 in the world by the end of next week. May not happen then but it's only a matter of time now.

Winning Paris will be a tall order, but he's playing well enough. I think in general we tend to underestimate how difficult it is to win even ATP 500s. Put it this way, in October Murray won two ATP 500s and a Masters. Wawrinka, who is next in the rankings, has won three ATP 500s and a Masters in his entire career (and he's two years older than Murray).
It's not easy to win these tournaments at the best of times far less four tournaments in a row so if he does manage it you'd have to say it's a major achievement.
Yes he has played a lot of matches recently, but most of them he has taken care of in 2 sets with built in tie breakers to decide any sets that go 6-6. Its not like the majors where he could be taken to 5 sets every second day, which has to be a lot harder to get over. Still think he has to be one of the fittest athletes Scotland has ever produced and his determination to get to the top of his sport is beyond admirable.
Demolished Pouille there, who is a very good player. The only downside is that looking at Novak's draw it's hard to see who's going to knock him out before the final. He has a 14-0 record against Cilic and then it's Isner or Jack Sock in the SF. I think even if Murray wins the tournament he might have to wait to be number 1.
Djokovic out, Murray just needs to make the final to get number 1. Not a given by any means as Berdych then Tsonga/Raonic isn't easy, but a great opportunity.
Maybe this explains Djokovic's slump.
