Murray Qualifies For 2011 Barclays ATP World Tour Finals

Murray Qualifies For 2011 Barclays ATP World Tour Finals

Andy Murray qualified for the Barclays ATP World Tour Finals after his five-set second-round win over Robin Haase at the US Open.

The season finale will be played on November 20-27 at The O2 in London.

Murray joins Novak Djokovic and Rafael Nadal as the other qualifiers.

“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.”

Murray captured his 17th career title last month at the Western & Southern Open in Cincinnati, his seventh ATP World Tour Masters 1000 crown.

He was the runner-up at the Australian Open and in June, he won his second career AEGON Championships title at Queen’s Club in London. Murray also advanced to the semi-finals at Roland Garros for the first time and at Wimbledon for the third straight year.
