Murray clinches ATP finals berth in Paris (Yahoo Sports)
Andy Murray extended his impressive run of form to reach the quarterfinals at the Paris Masters and book his place in the ATP Finals on Thursday. His clinical 6-3, 6-3 win over No. 9 seed Grigor Dimitrov at the Palais Omnisports guaranteed him a berth at the O2 Arena from Nov. 9-16. Murray was in control throughout, losing only two points on his first serve as he took a measure of revenge following his loss to Dimitrov in the quarterfinals at Wimbledon this year. Already qualified for the finals, third-seeded Stan Wawrinka failed to serve out the match before losing a 6-7 (2), 7-5, 7-6 (3) to Kevin Anderson in a match lasting nearly three hours as the hard-hitting South-African rallied to advance to the quarterfinals in Paris for the first time.
