2011 ATP World Tour Finals: Andy Murray becomes third player to qualify

Great Britain’s Andy Murray became the third player to qualify for the 2011 Barclays ATP World Tour Finals, the year-end competition of the world’s top eight male tennis players. The ATP World Tour Finals will take place at The O2 in London from November 20 to 27. The first two players to qualify were number one Novak Djokovic and number two Rafael Nadal. This is the fourth straight year that Murray qualified for this prestigious event.

“Each year, one of my goals is to qualify for the season finale in London, so it’s great to have made it again,” said Murray.
“I’ve had some really good matches at The O2 in the past, especially my semi-final against Nadal last year. Hopefully I can do even better this time around. The support I get from the home crowd has always been incredible and I’m really looking forward to playing there again,” he added.

Murray reached the semifinals of the ATP World Tour Finals last year where he lost to then no. 1 Rafael Nadal.
