Murray Wins Masters Series Title


Not long to go till Andy hits the Top 3, in my opinion. He beat World No.3 Djokovic for the second time this year to win the Cincinnati Master title yesterday, 7-6 7-6.

Next stop on the American Hard Court tour is the Cincinatti Masters where Andy is seeded 9th.

Andy Murray, seeded 8th here in the Toronto Masters, thrashed the 3rd seed Novak Djokovic today to set up a semi-final with Rafael Nadal.

This is Andy's first win against the Serbian ace, having slumped to heavy defeats in their previous three encounters.

In this, his first successful post-Wimbledon tournament, Murray has the chance to go all the way to the final if he can find a way check Rafa's steamroller forehands, and keep his first serve percentage high.

See how Andy battled his way to the final here.
